Windows Media Player can play most CDs or DVDs but sometimes the format is not understood. The best all round free video player I have found is VLC which you can download at www.videolan.org
If the problem is also on an external display then maybe Windows Side Bar is loaded with no gadgets. Otherwise a replacement screen is the answer. See ebay for prices and availability.
Try re-installing your the driver for your dvd rom. Then try to put different dvds and check if it can read from your drive. If problem remains, I suspected it's your dvd rom is faulty
Take a can of air and blow it on the laser then try to see if it will read both cd's and dvd's. If it doesn't read one or the other then the dvd-rw would need to be replaced.
