Bought a reconditioned HP Compaq 6220 4-5 months back and the unit has never been perfect, but then again only paid 100 bucks for it.
Any way, the main problem is the CD/DVD player constantly interrupts normal operation when not even using the player. It makes a little buzzing noise like it's trying to play a non existent cd once every couple of minutes or so and suspends everything else you might be doing for a few seconds at the time - very annoying - any ideas?
The other thing is I think this is also causing some sort of conflict that may suddenly cause the system to crash - and this happens constantly as well.
One more thing, I got a message that said I have some sort of startup dll corrupted, how do I go about fixing this up considering I don't have the original installation disc?
I do regular maint and have a firewall running and am using AVG anti virus.
Any advice would be appreciated.
