Hello,
Since some time ago, (2009), my CD/DVD Rom is malfunctioning
It doesnt READ DVDs or doesnt detect them
Started only being a little annoyance, just poking the DVD in some times would make it read it, now it will NEVER read any type of DVD
Help?

Most probably your burner has started to play up.

It is cheaper to purchase a new one than to try and fix it. You can get a LG dvd burner from Newegg for US$20.00

My burner?
and yes, I do have considered buying a new one, please recommend more than one?

Any of those dvd burners at the link I posted before are good, except the Liteon one.

Here's the link again...
