Hi

I have a Acer Aspire 5720z and lately got vista uninstalled and got XP on but now my DVD drive won't read properly It reads and plays CDs fine but if I put in a DVD it makes noises like it's trying really hard to find something on the disc but doesn't work. It's not the disc because it works on other computers so can you help???

-   I bought this computer from my friend, and to make a long story short, ended up installing windows on it again. My CD/DVD drive will read CD's, but not DVD's. I'm assuming I need a driver or something. Help, please! -   thinkinhard
