Toshiba Satellite C650 series
Installed WinXP on first 126GB of drive and Ubuntu 9.10 on remaining 194GB.
I tried Ubuntu 10.04 and had no wireless mouse, no wired or wireless internet, so I installed Ubuntu 9.10 and got wireless internet and mouse, no wired internet,
I went to System, Administrator, Update Manager, there were about 40 updates available for 9.10, after installing the updates I can’t mount the CDrom or even get it to open.

Can I do a reinstall over the top to undo the updates or will I have to delete the partition and start again.
Any comments appreciated
Thanks
