As above.

When a disc is inserted the icon on the mouse pointer responds (ie the disc spinning icon on the mouse pointer) - but thats all it does.

Tried lots of different disc's but they all do the same. When I try to run the disc in the drive it says "insert disc in drive G"

Any ideas? Seems like a waste of a good drive :(


ps Its a pioneer if that makes a difference, and it messed up during writing a disc.

Tried the static discharge + unistalled/reinstalled the drive but no joy

RIP Pioneer drive.
