 There are several things that can cause apparent failure of an optical drive:

Dirty Lens – if it ejects and closes ok and sometimes works but sometimes cannot read or write discs, the lens inside may be dirty. You can try cleaning the lens with a special lens cleaner CD (widely available in shops). This may resolve the problem but, in our experience, is often only a temporary fix – if the problem reoccurs the device should be considered faulty.

Disc Stuck In It – occasionally a disc may get stuck in the drive (particularly if it wasn’t inserted correctly). You can manually eject the disc by carefully pushing a pin into the pin sized hole in the front of the drive – inside the hole there is a tiny button which, when pressed, manually ejects the CD tray allowing you to retrieve the disc.

Software Problem –The drive may suddenly ‘disappear’ from Windows i.e. it no longer shows in My Computer and other programs like Nero and Itunes, so you can’t play or access a CD/DVD – even though it continues to eject alright, and you may hear it spinning when you insert a disc, you still can’t read or burn it.
