Confused DVD Burner drive opens & closes on its own

Hello--new to this forum! So I apologize if I'm in the wrong area. I have a LiteOn Burner (DVDRW SHW-160P6S) that I have used to burn CDs with no problem. I tried burning a DVD (used the computer supplied DVDLink software) and now the Burner drawer opens & closes on its own, inhibiting the ability to burn and read CDs and DVDs.

OS is Windows XP

Any ideas what may be the problem??? Thanks!

Hi
Welcome to TSF.
Have you run a Virus/Malware scan?
Have you uninstalled and reinstalled the driver?
What is the make and model of the PC?

I think you are going to have to replace the drive. The sensor may have been damaged inside your CD-Rom.
