(and from what I gather its crap)...<BR /><BR />All I need to know is:- a) is it repairable... and b).. if not what can I replace it with....<BR />Thanks<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 25 Mar 2006 18:53:22 GMT https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/yet-more-probs-dvd-cd-drive/m-p/38694#M96078 Blkadda2005 2006-03-25T18:53:22Z https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/yet-more-probs-dvd-cd-drive/m-p/38695#M96079 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Bikadda2005,<BR /><BR />Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but there have been quite a few problems with this drive.
