    Wondering if anyone could help ?

    I have a LG GWA-4082N DVD Drive in my HP Pavilion DV8000 laptop.

    This has drive haas been in the laptop since buying from new, andI have never had any problems.

    However recently there has been a problem.

    It doesn't pick up DVD's when they are in the drive.

    Blank or a movie... I can here the drive doing it thing... but nothing

    It is fine for CD's - music, games,software... but not for DVD's

    I have deleted the drive and reinstalled the drivers, still not working.

    Any ideas?

    thanks in advance
