Laptop CD-RW

My sister's cd-rw/dvd combo drive has stopped functioning (all I know atm). Whether she can actually read CD's etc I dunno but she said she's spoken with the Senior Technician at her uni and he said he couldn't do anything & advised her to take it back to wherever.

Problem is, she stupidly never got insurance on her laptop and it's pass the 1 year waranty (woteva) - are CD-RW's replacble in laptops?

(Packard Bell one I think)

Starbucks is on a distinguished road
YOu would have to go to packard bell

This will also teach you "No." to insurance/Extended Warrenty People, Things like this DO go wrong, and 99% of the time if you dont use it, you can transfer it to a new PC/Laptop (Personally i reccomend Laptop, as i wouldnt reccomend getting a PC From PC World Etc (nor due to my experience, making it yourself)

Expect to pay about £100 + fitting which will be about £160

OR, hit it
