OK.... after a little switching around, i hooked up my external MTU Certified writer to my XP, PC, and it made a world of difference as you can see in the photos i made above. I also took a photo of the external i put on here. Still not done yet, i have a few more things to do here, but this is sure making progress.
I am going to order a new MTU Certified Rom from their website, to use along with my show laptop. I don't want to change out the internal rom on this PC, because it works great with other programs i have. So i will keep you posted as to my progress. George
