Hi, i'm hoping you can help!
I have the above dvd drive installed in my computer its internal, earlier this week i bought the dark knight dvd and the drive started making noises like it was trying to read the dvd but couldnt manage too and so the dvd didnt work.
The extras dvd did work so i assumed it was just the movie dvd which was currupt but i got it to work on my playstation 2 dvd player....
anyway its been a few days and i finally came back to using my sony dvd rom and its not reading anything now wont read cd-r's or dvd's any of them it makes the same noises like its trying to read them but cant and in the end says to insert a cd in the drive...
i uninstalled it and allowed windows to reinstall it but that still didnt help.
Has the drive itself somehow damaged itself and needs some sort of physical repair? or its completly gone and so i'll need to buy another one or is there some explaination?
it should be noted since the last time i used the drive a few days ago and today when i noticed this problem i did update my microsoft stuff the automatic update and i also tried to use system restore which didnt help.
hope that made sense

I updated the latest firmware provided by sony and could solve the problem.
