Sorry, I forgot to mention that. I'm using Windows Vista. It looks like everything is okay.. I'm not completely sure where to go for that. I went to CP, and then Hardware and Sound, and it says everything is working. It's showing Speakers, Headphones, and Digital Output Device. I'm getting 6 results for this.. 5 are in windows\nvtmpinst folder, and the other one is called libusb0.sys in the driver folder.. Do you know what these mean? I'm really not sure why this isn't working.. I don't understand very well how computers work...

I have a pretty new laptop. A few months ago the hard drive failed, and I had to get a new one. Since then I've noticed two problems... Mainly if I plug headphones or speakers into it, it's like the computer doesn't know they're there, and sound keeps playing through the laptop speakers. The other problem is it can no longer read DVDs... Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm hoping the sound problem is just a missing driver so I can fix it myself...

I thought there used to be a topic on here about recommended PHP books... Are there any amazing books on PHP you guys would recommend? PHP best practices? Or maybe just books on programming? I've heard of multi-tier architecture and other things like that but I have no idea what they are.. I also want to get better at OOP..
