Problem 
Procedure
You cannot access a 
CD/DVD in the drive.
Make sure the drive's drawer is securely closed. 
Press gently until it clicks into place.
Open the drawer and make sure the CD/DVD is  
properly seated. It should lie flat with the label  
facing up.
A foreign object in the drawer could block laser 
light from reading the CD/DVD. Make sure there 
is no obstruction. Remove any foreign object.
Check whether the CD/DVD is dirty. If it is, wipe 
it with a clean cloth dipped in water or a neutral 
cleaner. See the Media care section in 
Chapter 4, Operating Basics for details on 
cleaning.
