A friend of mine has a six year old laptop and the disc drive is fried. I suggested that he get an external drive to replace it, considerign he's planning on getting a new laptop at some point this year. We went and got a DVD ROM external reader, installed it and whatnot, seemed to be set up right. However, when he tries to burn a CD, it tries to burn it using the faulty drive in the laptop. How can we change it to where it recognizes the external drive?
