Hi
The DVD/CD on my 18 month old Compaq pc is not working properly. The DVD bit is fine and I can play games and watch films but when I try to play music cds it stutters, runs slow and ticks. I have checked all the systems on my pc and everything is fine. The PC Doctor has no category that I can find on mechanical problems.
