Hello people. I have a very strange problem with my computer. Everything worked fine until I connected new DVD burner. After that I was not able to boot Windows. But when I disconnect new DVD computer boots fine. I have two hard drives and one CD burner attached. Do you know what is the problem here?

Hello. How strong and how old is your power supply unit? This looks to me like power supply issue. When you connect DVD it uses that little strength left in power supply and then computer cannot boot. When you disconnect it then computer has enough power to work normally. I would suggest you to buy stronger power supply if you want to keep that DVD burner.
