Originally posted by Marc Summers my DVD drive hasn't been working. The green light is on when the disc is in, like it's reading it.

This is messed up. If anyone can solve my problem, they will get a prize.

www.tigerdirect.com dude it's 40 bucks..who cares!

wtf do you think I am a computer tech?

I can't physically install anything in a computer!

Chances are you have a f-d up DVD, especially if it was burned. Try using different DVDs, (hopefully factory-made) if that still results in the same problem, your DVD drive is fucked. Replacing one is as simple as unplugging 3 cables.

-data
-power
-audio

A retarded monkey could do that.

Have fun.

ok, im shit at comps too, but this is simple. right


take side unit off base unit. unscrew the drive from the bay at the top, usually 4 screws. there will be 2 wires in the back of ur current drive. Take them out, remember which way & then put them in the same holes on the new drive. screw it in, side back on, boot up.


if not, we could always hold a seance for it
