Well first of all, if your cdrom Had worked before, it should still work no matter what you upgraded.

Format is when you 'erase' your hard drive of the crap that is on it, if you want to format your HD its easily done with the Windows CD, but I don't reommend it.

What 'I' Would do is get the drivers cd that came with the burner, (if you have it) or possibly go download new drivers for it. What you'll want to do before you put the new drivers on is UNinstall the old ones, then install the new ones.
