Question about LG (GSA-4167B) DVD RW Dual Layer Burner
Hello, very recently this new problem has arised in my LG GSA-4167B DVD Writer. Whenever I insert any CD or DVD in the ROM the PC restarts ..this goes on for 2-3 times ...then finally I'm able to read the disc. This has also adversely affected my HDD. Kindly provide a solution...thanks
What is happening is that the dvdrom firmware or the laser is failing and cannot read the disc; and because the pc is using all the system resources trying to do so; it appears that you cannot get anything to run, making it seem as if the hard drive is faulty also, though not the case. You will need to replace the drive if this is a common occurance, as the life of a dvd drive nowadays dependant on use is aprox 2 years, because as the prices come down so does the quality of the laser required to burn and read discs.
