R Rick \Nutcase\ Rogers Jul 3, 2005 #2 Hi, There may be dust on the lens, a CD lens cleaner disk may help. These are commonly available at most stores that sell CD media. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP Associate Expert - WindowsXP Expert Zone Windows help - www.rickrogers.org

I suspect that the drive may have failed. At today's prices, replacing the drive is certainly cheaper than repairing it and probably even cheaper than getting a repair tech to test the drive.
