    oh...it's part of a software protection that they do for games...requires the first cd to be in the drive while you play. There's way's around it but if you actually purchased it...might as well just stick it in there.

    cant you go to dell.com and see if you have those as options and if they were available as options?...if they are drivers you will have to purchase them...and I believe thats what they are

    Memory, etc shouldn't have to deal with reading the discs... Try updating your driver... I'd recommend going to

    http://www.ocforums.com/

    I really duno anything... But these people would definately know I'd guess...

    alot of these modern games require a sh*t load to play...your default vid card might not be good enough
