I just got a "refurb" SCSI Yamaha cd/rw 4x4x16 unit a CRW4416S from
Justdeals.com and it seems to be faulty. I havnt tried to burn anything
as yet as the unit doesnt seem to play back any cd very well, it skips
from track to track and stops in the middle of a track and no amount of
cleaning the cds seem to help I have played the cds in the other cd
player and they are fine.
Drive setup recognises the unit but even if there is a cd in it it wont mount, The only way to get a cd to play is to boot with Norton Utilities in it and it will boot off this After I do this It will play a cd after rebooting
I cant return the unit as it is out of the return period allowed so I have to repair it or throw it.
I paid a relatively small amount for this unit which was an internal unit and put it in an external case. I was wondering if there was ANYTHING I could do before I launch it into oblivion and write the experience of buying from Justdeals.com off to another lesson learned�?
Thanks for the thoughts
Michael
