Mid September, my computer did something funny.  I got 2 new CDs for my birthday and I was uploading them to iTunes.  I finished the first one, and when I got to the second my computer claimed there was no CD. Since then, it hasn't reccognized any CDs or games, even if it used to reccognize them before.  For some reason, it does reccognize DVDs.  But nothing else. My dad said he would fix it, but he hasn't... So... Does anyone know what this could be?  My computer is not old, it wasn't even a year old when that happened.  I have tried cleaning the CD-thing.  Nothing works. Help?

Failing that there is not a connection problem between the CD Drive and the motherboard, it may just be that the Drive is no longer working. As in the part that reads CDs is no longer function, but the DVD one is working fine. So you may need to replace the Drive. infernoburn Posted at 2:58 pm on June 14, 2008 thast hasppend to me i had 2 wipe the intire computer memory in oder to get it 2 work Byble Posted at 2:58 pm on June 14, 2008 is there a  loose connection between the CD drive thingie and the motherboard**** even All 3 previous replies displayed.
