what about other data discs? With the movie dvd, does it show in the computer at all (any indication it's in the drive)?
This is a WIN 7 desktop. (husband's computer) So its difficult for me to know all the details of when it stopped. He tried to put a movie into the disk slot about 2 weeks ago. Nothing happened. Usually you can hear things happening once the disk is in place. I hate the thought of possibility of a drive problem. I think the best scenario would be with some kind of setting? I can't offer up any other symptoms other than nothing happening when the disk is put into the tray. If its something like a replacement being required, it wouldn't be a problem except that some programs are loaded on disks. For example, printers. So I would really need to have it looked at? Thank you for any answer on this
