| Re: dvd drive wont play anything but dvds Hi, So I'm guessing that it won't read CD media? If so, you might want to try a lens cleaner disk. Different lasers are used for the differing media, and if the lens cleaner doesn't work then there is a good chance that the CD laser has failed. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP [url]http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/[/url] Windows help - [url]www.rickrogers.org[/url] My thoughts [url]http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com[/url] "thefallenpoet" <thefallenpoet@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:8B03395A-D363-4C85-8041-807FF67A83AB@microsoft.com...[color=blue] >I have a toshiba laptop running vista 32 bit home basic.
