IBM Shipped a new DVD drive to me, and it arrived this afternoon, I did a
quick test, in which I played a DVD movie that I had problems with and it
seemed to work just fine now ,so it was a issue with the older DVD drive I
had. When things cool down around the house this weekend I'll give it a shot
and try and install MDK 10.1 and see how it does this time.
