Alan,
I am not sure what the CDRW would do, but I don't think it should make a difference. What type of Video card do you have? you can find this out by running the following:
1. Click the
Start Menu and the Run command
2. Type in
DXDIAG and click the OK Button
3. This will open the DirectX DIAGnostic program that will gather and show your computer data
4. Once the information is collected, click the
Save all Information button at the bottom
5. A
Save as dialog box will appear
6. Change the
Save in directory to C:\My Documents
7. Change the filename to
dxdiag from Yourfirst Lastname (example: dxdiag from Joe Smith)
8. You can download a free upgrade from Microsoft at:
