So my T410 is getting on my nerves because it's been unstable for several

I think I've cured it, I'm wrong.
ISTR a while ago that there was a driver that let you drag files to a CD or DVD
in the writer, and folks thought it was buggy. But I don't see anything in the
installed programs list that looks like this. Can anyone tell me where to go?

Thanks in advance,

Sadly, you need to rebuild from scratch. I once had a user who had a bad
thinkpad in terms of XP stability, and spend something like 60 hours trying
stuff, before I found some registry problems, and fixed them--mostly.
That taught me that once things got wonky, rebuilding was faster than
trying to deal with the root cause. Given that Windows is closed source,
it's just about the only option.
