I was about to watch some anime, so I loaded a DVD, and was surprised that the thing wast stalled reading the thing and didn't work. So I rebooted with the same results.
Since I was using Vista, I rebooted again, this time using XP and the thing worked, so I was curious and went back to Vista, and checked and it wasn't working, so I thought it was some malware or something software related causing it, but it was weird because I haven't installed anything recently.
Anyway I unistalled Nero, Daemon Tools, PowerDVD without results, made some google searches, tried some reg tweaks and nothing.
So I decided to re-install Vista, but the disc stalled booting up, so I went back to XP again and scanned the disc using Nero DiscSpeed, and it was supposedly to be 100% OK but the test took to long. So I just made a speed to the drive and I was shocked! I didn't reached even 4x and it's a 16x drive (NEC ND-3520). So should I try something else, maybe testing it at another PC or my drive just died?
