Hello, i have a problem with my computer, a while ago my computer was running fine, then i just got the problem that when i put a cd in the disc drive, any cd, it turns the computer off after about 20 seconds.. I dont know why this has happened, i cannot install any of my games or put any audio cd's in anymore
Does any1 know anything on how 2 fix it?

As a first try go to the Device Manager Start/Run/ devmgmt.msc
Click the + next to DVD/CD drives and then click on this drive and choose uninstall then reboot your computer.
XP should reload the drivers. See if this helps.

Witch one do i click on? .. JLMS or LITE-ON?? .. If i uninstall will it reinstall it or will it be lost completely and i have stuffed my compupter up.. ?

Do you have more than one CD drive? JLMS Lite On appear to be one and the same.
Are they listed as two different drives?
If you uninstall the drive it will just force XP to reload the drivers on next boot.

when i click on the plus next to CD/DVD ROM or somthing, two stuff come up, it says.. JLMS XJ-HD1665 and underneathe that it says .. LITE-ON LTR-522465 .. witch one do i click on and click uninstall and then reboot? witch one?

If these are 2 different CD drives then click the one that is giving you problems.
If you only have one CD drive then uninstall both.
When you restart your computer XP will find and load what it finds.
-
when i put the cd in the dvd drive and the cd drive both of them turn off the comp, so i guess i uninstall both of them?

That would be a first step yes.
Just out of curiosity you might first look in the Device Manager at
+IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers
|-
|-Secondary IDE Channel
|-
Click that line & look for errors.

ok i done it, and i rebooted, now what do i do, it reloaded the drivers

See if either will take a CD.
