Hi,
I have windows XP on a notebook Emachines m5405. I can play dvds. But when I insert an audio cd or porgram software, it doen't recognize that anything is in the drive. Emachines wants me to pay their Retail Services for help. Any ideas? Is my drive dying?

- Thanks for your reply! Heres an update and new problems!!
I checked the computer advice link. Numbers 1 through 3 I had already down. Number 4 showed a blank on the Open line. so I went to number 5 then 6. Driver shows that windows is the driver. I checked for updates again - already did that to get the dvd part working earlier. nothing new. Tried music and software programs. No luck.

So I went and bought an external drive. When I first put in a cd, it gives an error - I have to go to my computer and click on the drive - the error say file corrupted or something else. Next time I tried it, I just get a blank place under the new drive. It will read a blank dvd-rw but not software or music. Tried the new external drive with same cds on other computer and it works fine. Help please! Thanks!
