Hi All,

Yes, I am sorry that I did not spell out that it is a laptop.
I thought the details given would have been sufficient to
identify the item.  It just goes to show that one shourld be
more explicit.

So far the news is not encouraging.

I can get hold of another laptop CD-ROM drive for a Compaq
laptop but the connections are different.

Is it possible to "repair" my old one with this one?

Has anybody had any experience with this sort of thing?

The old drive was working but the small glass thing (laser?)
came out when somebody put a vacuum cleaner on it!

Happy days!

Bill
