CD not working.

[Inscribe]

Well when i put a cd/dvd into my pc nothing comes up. And the cd draw thing makes like weird noises.

I dont know why it doesnt work as its near enough a brand new pc.
I have an Acer Aspire l3600 and i had a look on there site to see if i needed any drivers for it.

But theres no cd drivers listed. I have rebooted my pc afew times so i dont know if thats done anything.

Hopefully someone can help me as i need to install my wireless router and without the cd im kinda ***** :BangHead:

qwerty1 sorry mate it looks like a newe drive, you can pick a DVD drive up now for around 15 - 20 £'s

if its a old pc and drive, well, it was coming, if it was new, i'd send it back. nbut then again, it'll take weeks. just get a new one..

The nagain it could be in the bios..

Check the Device Manager, see if it's functioning properly.
If not, you need to open it up and check the IME and such.

Or you can buy a LiteOn from me (Jokes. Or not?)

You hold a good and positive point, although bios's dont change without a update to the bios and he doesnt list that change or any change.

also, he mighta changed his region too many times..

Do any discs work?

Ive tried music/games/software.
I think it probally is the driver. Buecause when i put a cd in notihng comes up at all.
Its a new pc only had it afew months.

Like i said in the original post i have rebooted/(make it back to when it was new)
So i think that might be the problem.

Even tho all my other devices work..

Also if you see a pic of my pc ( acer aspire l3600 ) Its not a normal drive id have to buy. So does anyone know where to get a new one? Also would you get to software with it to install it.

I know nothing about pcs....

Is it, that they dont work or that it doesnt auto play?

go into my computer and see if you cn double click if a CD is in.. (Musci)

Edit:
Just send it back, thats a hard part to replace.. it sucks the cds in.. if its only like.. 4 / 6 month old, take it back, its still udner warrenty.
