DVD drive can't read DVD on Vista
Hi. My laptop couldn't read DVD anymore, after one fine day. It was working fine maybe 2 months back, now it can't read any DVD at all, but it's able to read CDs. I just can't figure out why. Hope someone is able to help Thanks in advance.

DVD drive can't read DVD on Vista
Hi,
Run a lens cleaner disk, the DVD reader may be clogged or covered by dust. The lens used for CD's is not the same as the one used for DVD's, which may explain why those disks work and DVD's don't. A lens cleaner disk can usually be found at most stores that sell optical media disks. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "zyloh89" wrote in message ...
