    While attempting to play a dvd (the dvd player hasnt worked properly since i bought the damn laptop) the computer froze. after reboot the computer decided that i am not running a proper copy of windows 7.  I think it has something to do with the dvd player freezing up.  can you please tell me what to do before I have to reboot to factory and lose all my files.

    Why should you lose your files?  Just back them up.

    If you're still within the guarantee/warranty period, you should  be asking the manufacturer for assistance - there's always the possibility that the problem is hardware-based.
