My cd/dvd rom drive just stopped working. i could play dvds, cds and run games on it earlier, but one day i start up my computer, wack a movie in and nothing. I thought it was just the movie, but then i tried all of my discs, games cd's etc.

the little light goes on for about 3 seconds and i can hear the disc spinning, but after the 3 seconds, it all just stops. the computer never shows any sign that a disc has been inserted. i can eject the discs and such which shows that the cd/dvd drive is still working.

Nothing has happened to this computer since it last worked. it has just stopped today. Why? (Why do i always get the unsolvable problems that make no sense!)
