Can you tell me why the PC won’t recognize a PC drive? Everything was working fine up to yesterday when I wanted to play a movie and inserted a disc into the CD drive. But the LED indicator on it wasn’t working and the PC didn’t recognize the device. This CD drive is not that new, but I wasn’t using it too much. Can you tell me what other reasons for malfunction can be?

Well, it doesn’t matter how much you were using it. Sometimes devices stop working for no reason whatsoever. I mean maybe it’s noting wrong with your CD ROM but be prepared for the fact that it’s broken and that you may have to buy another device. I think that they’re not that expensive anymore and everybody who has a PC can afford a DVD ROM. But, I won’t be to pessimistic because maybe it’s just that some plugs are not well connected. Before jumping to any conclusion, check the plugs if you know how, and if you don’t know ask somebody to check it for you. If the plugs and wires are well connected, and everything else is functioning properly, than I’m afraid that your CD’s time is up.
