cd rom drive doesnt open

« on: 16.02.07, 14:59:17 »


Hi,
my cd rom drive doesnt work properly anymore. It doesnt open until I click like 10 times. I have an acer notebook (almost 3 yrs old) and win XP. Will a cleaning disc help??
thx - minnie

If only the cds wouldn't work probably, a cleaning disk might have worked. But when also the drive doesn't react to "opening", it seems to be a hardware failure.

Can you open the drive when clicking the "open" menu-entry in the Windows "System" panel on the cd drive?
