My CD drive wont play any cd's that i put into my drive, i put a disc in, it
spins it around but in my computer it doesnt recognise it.
Other posts say go into control panel, but when i open contol panel it opens
it for about a second then a message says windows explorer is restarting!
What can i do?

When you said "play", are you referring to music CDs? If so, do you have the
same results from a data CD? If so, I would suspect the CD drive is
defective and needs to be replaced.

I'm not following the sentence about Control Panel. Too many pronouns. When
you said "...it opens it..." do you mean it opens the Control Panel or a
window to view the contents of the CD? If it's trying to open a window to
view the contents of the CD, it's probably related to a bad CD drive.
