Ok, my DVD drive sudently disapeared from 'My PC' after the system crashed with Nero.
So I did the normal procedure for this kind of error (code39 I think), but in the middle of my dispare,
I whent and disconected the drive trying to get it to re-install itself.
The problem started when I forgot wich cable was that I disconected, or at least I believe so,
cus just when I was reconecting it, the PC turned off, and this peculiar 'bad news' smell (burned device smell) fill the room.
For a moment I thought I had burned my poor PC, but after a few trys I was able to turne it On again and here I am.
But the DVD Drive doesn't do anything.
My question is, if the Drive was burned as I think,
can I still test it in my other PC?, or am I at risk of ending up with two fried PCs?
is it safe?
*by 'Burn' I mean a short-circuited.
