When I install a disc nothing happens. Then sometimes it will play after a few minutes. I sometimes get a window that says,"program not responding."
Most units are designed to "autoplay" audio CDs when they are inserted. When they fail to do so, it could be because the CD is dirty or scratched and was bot recognized, the media player that you are using to play the CD was not in a state that it could autoplay the CD, or there could be a problem with the Disk drive or PC itself. Whenever a CD fails to play upon insertion, go to the "My Computer" icon (win7 or below) and see if the CD/DVD drive shows a disk inserted. If so, clicking on the drive will often start the playback.

Creating recovery discs After setting up the computer for the first time, be sure to create a set of recovery discs of the full factory image. the recovery discs are used to start up (boot) the computer and recover the operating system and software to factory settings in case of system instability or failure.

I'm afraid the drive itself has gone bad. The "working properly" you get in the device manager is a misnomer...all it means is that the device can be seen by windows it doesn't actually indicate the functionality of the device. It is likely that the laser died in the middle of the movie and the only way to fix it is to replace the drive.

Hi,
You need to download K Lite Codec Pack (Its Free) and you can install it via....... or you can try googling it.
http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm
It contains all the different audio and video codecs. Your computer might not play it because it doesnt have a blue ray codec by default
Please post your feedback and Vote if the problem resolved as per your satisfaction.

Hi ljcoppes...
If you have to use the CD/DVD's for recovery then you will have to buy or borrow a usb connected CD/DVD reader/player.
