DVD Drive Problem
After giving up on my laptop internal DVD drive I bought an external DVD drive. This worked okay for a few weeks. Now whenever I insert a disc to be copied or a blank to be written I get a message saying the drive door is closed but no media is present. I scanned for viruses and spyware and no problems were found. Anybody have an idea what to try next?
Maybe installing a new driver could fix this problem. You can find the newest driver on the homepage from the brand of your DVD drive.
Or uninstalling and then reinstalling the hardware? But I driver update might fix it if there is one.
Also try a different DVD brand. Especially if you have an LG.
