Good ! Another issue solved
Alright so I contacted a Technician here about the CD/DVD-ROM issue to see if he have an idea on how to proceed (safely) to make it work.

Really ? Well then let's hope it will find the appropriate driver for it

[canadianchicklet]

oh bummer it failed... but.. it tried lol

[Aura]

Sorry for the late reply, here's what a Technician told me to send you

One of these may help:
1. Uninstall the drive through Device Manager.
Restart computer. The drive will be automatically reinstalled.
or...
2. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060
Restart computer.
or...
3. Download, and run Restore Missing CD Drive patch
Double click on cdgone.zip to unzip it.
Right click on cdgone.reg, click Merge.
Accept registry merge.
Restart computer.
or...
4. Go to Device Manager, click a "+" sign next to IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers.
You'll see two items:
- ATA Channel0 (or Primary Channel)
- ATA Channel1 (or Secondary Channel)
Right click on each of them, and click Uninstall. Confirm.
Restart Windows. They'll be automatically reinstalled.
5. Go to Microsoft's site http://support.micro..._drive_problems and follow the steps.
6. Try the guide at this link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982116

Thank's to Broni for the instructions

I would avoid Suggestion #4 for now alright ? Try the others one first and report back after each one to tell me how it went please.

[donetao]

Hello! That's the repair disc. You will need it to boot with if your HD dies.

Now you need to crate a full back up or a back up image!
