Ive got a cdrw drive on my laptop and make my own cds of my fav songs off albums and that and recently i noticed that the cds either dont have all tracks working or there is disortion would that mean my cd-rw drive wld have gone? cos the dvd-rom drive side works perfectly as its a combo.

If it has gone how wld i go about getting a replacement?

This is a setting within Nero somewhere - what's it's doing is writing the CD as a file on your hard drive somewhere.

Oooh I see. But it's strange how it's changed. I haven't touched anything! Weird. Will look for that setting now.

Oh.. and that's another thing I forgot.. It doesn't work with Fireburner either, so maybe it is a problem with the CD-RW. At the moment, the cd tray won't even open, which means the computer needs restarting all the time. Never seems to work the first time the computer gets switched on!
