I upgraded my Compaq Presario to Windows XP and now my CD burner will not work. How do I find the correct drivers to install so it will detect my CD burner

I want a computer (new) with win xp home or xp pro with at least 160 gb hd, 512-1GB (expandable to at least 4 GB RAM), minimum Pentium 4 2.66 mhz, 800 mhz front side bus (FSB), DVD writer, DVD rom, ethernet port, modem, sound card, minimum 4 usb 2.0 ports. 3.5″ floppy, no mini towers. Video RAm on mother board or separate video card.
Also I want to avoid Dell.

Oh, and I have another question.

What files can you convert MIDIs to?
