Yeah, well that was my intensions, to install what was on the CD then give
the CD to her. This of course didn't happen due to the possibly dead DVD
drive. It was actually a DVD I was going to give her, but so what. Shouldn't
make a difference.

Whenever working on someone else's computer, its a good idea to bring an
external hard drive with all the important programs you might need to
install again. Also make sure they have all the original CDS encase worse
happens. Like reformatting the system.

Hi all,
I went to do some maintenance yesterday at my friend's house using her
laptop running XP Home. I uninstalled everything, including her antivirus,
and didn't realize that her DVD drive wasn't working properly till too
late.
So I've now left her without an antivirus, but managed to get her some
antispyware protection. What do you all think of me checking stuff out
before doing any such maintenance? I didn't know this should have been
done
before anything else till tonight. Any comments on this would be greatly
appreciated. I just hope she manages to find at least AVG 7.5 Free as
she's
still using JAWS 8. Thanks in advance!
