My notebook contains an optiarc dvd rw ad-7585. The dvd opens immediately after turning it on and won't close. If I try to close it, I can hear the normal closing sound and directly a kind of release click and it opens again. Is there a way to fix it, or is the player beyond repair?
If your drive opens directly when you turn on your computer, I mean that you have to bring it back to a repair center (maybe where you bought it).
SOURCE: Optiarc DVD RW AD-7561A This device cannot start. (Code 10)
I beleive that this code is being displayed under the Device Status in the Properties window of the DVD Drive in Device Manager.
If it is so, you need to do some modifications with the Registry to resolve the issue and I am sure that the issue will be resolved with this.
However, since you had not specified the Operating System which is installed in the Notebook is Vista or XP.
However, I am providing the links which includes the steps for both Vista and XP to edit the registry to resolve the issue with Error Code 10 with the DVD Drive in your Notebook.

You need to perform the steps listed under Resolution in the link above.
You may not find both the Upper and Lower filters according to the instructions links provided above.
Delete the ones among the Upper filter or Lower filter or both which you find in the locations mentioned.
This should solve the issue...
