498205 2006-11-11 15:00:00 Everytime I put in a DVD or some games the disk just sits in the disk drive and does nothing, it doesn't load anything, it doesn't even spin. Just sits their!
I can live with the DVD's but the games is what really pisses me off!

I'm useless with PC's so I don't have a clue what's up with it. Any help?

498206 2006-11-11 21:37:00 Does it work with other CDs? Can you find the disk in "My Computer"? There are a whole series of possible causes and we will need more details to tell what's most likely in your case. If you could step us through exactly what you are trying to do it might help to diagnose it. TGoddard (7263)

Most disks work but copied DVD's and some games don't. it doesn't read anything in My Computer, it's like it doesn't even recognise it's their!

I put in the game which is brand new and is in top condition into the CD Drive and it just sits their doing nothing.

HELP?
