Acer Aspire 5517 code 39

I found the solution this morning. I found "acers trouble-shooter" and ran that program. Three days into seeking out the problem, ran Windows trouble-shooter, negative results, looked up acer, came up short. Google "acer aspire 5517" found model and trouble-shoot ran with it, detected problem, fix and the sun shines again.

What was the problem?

I had to download a "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor" ran that program and ran FIX IT. It advised me that GIMP was not compatible with Windows 7, I dumped GIMP.

Too bad GIMP didn't warn you before it installed.

It was weired, didn't know I had a problem till I went to upload some photo's for a friend and burn a copy for him. That's when I discovered that my DVD RW Drive was totally gone. I Can't blame GIMP for my error and their may have been something else that I did that removed the program.
Just glad I was able to get back and working. Lesson Learned, plus I now have a program to run for compatibility +score.
