Halp!!!
My computer won't read ANY CD's - every time I try to say, play a game, it tells me to please insert the CD-rom and then try again. And it happens with everythingg. Am I screwed? :/

If you need a new drive, it would NOT be cheaper for a new tower. DVD drives sell for around 30 euros/dollers etc. and are extremely easy to replace. Take the side panel off, and look a the back of the dvd dive if it's a new computer it should attach with a small cable called a SATA cable: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) (the one on the right) If not it should attach with an ide cable: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location). Identify the type of cable, go to a computer shop and buy a drive that attaches to the same cable as your current one, unscrew the old one, screw the new one in, replace the two cable that were in your old one, and you're good to go.

I dont know the exact words for the stuff but you probably need a new drive it happened to my old computer when i left it turned on during a really bad storm and fried the board inside. it would probably be cheeper for a new tower.
