I can download from the internet, but when I put in a dvd or cd disc, It wont load. Sometimes the disc will be ejected and I get a "Insert Disc" message. Any ideas? Game discs, and other pre-programed discs I have used before wont load.
Dvd/Cd rom laser lens are only being alive for about 2 years if you use it a lot.The solution is to buy a new one.I suggest you not even try to clean the lens because i had that problem too and the drive didn't read the cleaning CD and my money go to waste.
It's quite probably a dirty laser lens. Buy a lens cleaner disc from any good music or computer store and follow the insructions. If this fails the drive may be dead. You can buy a CD/DVD burner now for under £40 (UK) and they are simple to fit. Just make sure the jumpers on the back are set the same as those on the existing drive. Only two cables to unplug and replace it's a 10 minute job. Hope this helps
