    This just started happening, and I will post a hijackthis log. However I was wondering if anyone has come across this at all. I put my cds in the drive and nothing pops up on the screen saying what I want to open the CD with and when I go to explore it doesnt't recognize any of the drives or the material on the cd. Is there any suggestions that might alleviate this. Could it be a virus? This happens with my DVD drive too. Nothing reads on any of the discs.

    More than likely it's a hardware problem but, post the HijackThis log just to be certain. :)
