CAN A IBM THINKPAD T42
If the burner is a combo burner it can do both it will tell you on the face of the burner. If this is not the case it will just burn what it is meant for. You cannot do both if it is not a combo burner. One or the other combo both. You will also need burning software as well. One of my favorite free burning software programs is

Go to any small (or large) computer-store, and ask for an 80-pin IDE cable. Probably not more than $5.

I have a IBM Thinkpad T40 the only thing i can get
As I understand the problem, the computer won't boot up completely, right? If that's happening, then the problem has something to do with the operating system itself.
The only thing that I could think of to resolve this problem is for you to reformat the computer. Make sure that you have the necessary drivers for your components like video card, sound card, DVD player, etc.
If you're not sure about the drivers that you have, you may contact the computer manufacturer for second opinion.
Thank you!
Cd/DVD makes noises
use a cleaning CD, it should solve the problem. If you hear noises but the reading is normal with no brakes, that is not a problem, it`s normal .
Screen wont go on but mouse cursor is present
If your cursor is present, you screen is "on". I'm assuming that you have a version of Windows. Most likely, something is not loading properly. Load your computer in to safe mode by starting it and pressing F8 a lot. A menu will appear, select Safe Mode. If you computer boots correctly and everything works, you need to update your video drivers. If not, take your computer in to a shop for repair or ask an expert friend, as there are too many steps to explain over the internet. I hope this helps!
The ejection button does not work.
Take a paper clip unfold it and you can manually eject what you have in there by inserting it into the tiny hole by the eject button...I won't solve the problem but if your favorite cd/dvd is stuck...that will get it out.
