[QUOTE="lar5one, post: 47210"] As of a week ago, my PB's cd-rom is acting all funky. It takes such a long time to read cd's and sometimes I have to eject and re-insert the cd to make it work. The next moment it might be fine. These are, at least to me, clear signs that my drive is getting a little loose around the edges, but I don't have the time to send my mac in for service, since this is my work computer and I use it day and night. What's a guy to do? Are there any ways to clean the drive and hopefully see improvements or am I doomed? Thanks :) [/QUOTE]
