Questions for Windows XP experts out there

When you change drivers, you should not just overwrite one set with the other. Whilst that works with other types of drivers and it can work sometimes with v/card drivers, it is best to use Add an Remove Progs from the Control Panel to remove previous drivers first. XP professes to remove driver...

(Dead) Cendyne DVD-R/RW 4X Drive (Pioneer) "$149.99" AR & coupon at Staples

Sorry to mislead you, I meant I bought one during the week they also had the rebate (but it was for a different week period). I sent that rebate in already and I was wondering if I would still qualify for this rebate (even though it says one rebate per person). Thx. Would the rebate still apply?
