I recently got myself a 52X burner......having been my first one....something happened a few minutes ago that I'm not sure about....I popped in a data CD n proceeded to add some data unto the CD...at this time my floppy drive acted up(like when u click on the floppy drive n there's no diskette in it)...I tried the same procedure about 3 times n it did the same thing. Is this something I have to worry about or is it just normal? Thanx in advance
