Reddit mentions of Chuanganzhuo External Optical Drive USB 2.0 DVD/CD Player for Mac Windows 2000/XP/Vista/Win 7/ Win 8/Win 10,Ultra Notebook PC Desktop Computer+Dustproof Bag Case,Black

Here's one for $14 from Amazon that plugs into a USB port. But the whole situation is ridiculous. EHRs were supposed to be interoperable. We've invested decades and billions of dollars in an EHR infrastructure that is broken beyond repair, and will never be able to work as intended. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

just open a file browser, copy the contents to a flash drive. what's on the drive, because some stuff like game installs or bootable stuff may not work. alternatively get one of these for 15 bucks https://www.amazon.com/External-Optical-Notebook-Computer-Dustproof/dp/B00X7DH5GE/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1539567007&sr=8-3&keywords=cd+drive+usb

The Onkyo CD player has digital optical and coaxial outputs, and analog outputs.

The Behringer only has analog inputs, but includes Tracktion software for acquiring audio from it. Those could work together (with a pile of cables and adapters) but you'd be converting the CD's digital information to analog and back to digital, and then you'd have to re-encode that into your preferred format.

For $15, you can get an external CD drive and use whatever ripping software you want, save a few steps, and get more precise rips:

To me it sounds like your drive is defective, sorry.

Last ditch effort would be to remove all the drivers again and perform a clean install. If that doesn't help you should send it in and get it replaced.

To help out your problem, if you order an external usb dvd drive from amazon today it should arrive until tomorrow. They aren't very expensive, here is a good one http://www.amazon.com/External-Windows98-Notebook-Dustproof-Scratch-Resistant/dp/B00X7DH5GE/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1449246710&sr=8-8&keywords=usb+dvd+drive

Sorry I couldn't help more!

If that doesn't help...

Unless our Windows XP VM has the same virtual hw as your laptop (CPU, disk etc) I'd think Windows would complain the same as it does if you take the windows installed hard disk out of one machine and put it in another that is different in its hardware and refuse to boot.

Have you tried something like:

or pay $14 and buy one of these USB connected external CD/DVD players that support Win7, XP etc

If you're fine with renting them, you could sign up for a single month of Netflix's DVD rental service for under $10, and get an external DVD drive for $14 from Amazon.
