My ASUS DRW-0804P or MS CD/DVD-ROM SCSI CdRom Device (from device manage, both under DVD/CD-ROM drives), which reads and writes both CD and DVDs doesn't seem to read or write DVD disks anymore. That includes previous DVDs that used to to work, after you write on a blank DVD - it finishes burning and it becomes a blank, unusable or other computer disk. However, reading and writing CDs are fine.
When I put in any DVD, there's the normal reading noise and the lights flash, I then click on the drive shortcut and it loads, it then becomes blank. Like there's nothing in the drive and it stops reading, even if I leave it in there. I believe StarForce from a couple of TrackMania games are the culprit, but it has already been removed and still does not work. Also I've tried one of those laser lens cleaners that somebody suggested but it doesn't work.
Please help me,
Kego
Also one of the front 2 usb ports doesn't work, it doesn't detect anything - any suggestions?
I can provide additional information if you require, but tell me where to get it. Also I've searched google, it just comes up with pages that have the same-ish problem that are unresolved.
I also tried the trouble shoot option, went through it and it said it couldn't find a solution.
