Hi Bacillus,
Thank you for your reply!
Unfortunately I am do not know what 'bios' are. But I do get a message when closing down 'word':
"Microsoft Visual Basic; compile error in hidden module: Auto Exec"
Do you think these problems are interrelated?
Best

I have the Studio XPS 8100 desktop with windows 7. The DVD/CD-ROM Drive cannot be found when I tried to dowmload and install the driver. The DVD/CD icon
not display in "my computer". I get code 19 - Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. Help wanted. Thank You.

If the "FixIt" does not work, scroll down the page and follow the manual instructions for your operating system.
