DVD Writers malfunctioning!

[anshul]

I have a Samsung OCTROEDGE CD RW+DVD R and a sony DVD writer.
Recently I canceled a autorun process and after that the DVD writer has stopped functioning.........
It scratches the discs and doesnt read them..........
The same case is with the CD-RW which sometimes reads the DVDs.

Can anyone help........
I tried uninstalling the driver and then restarting the PC but it does not help.......
I tried disconnecting and then reconnecting the writers but does not help>...............
!!


Any Help???????

* Go for cleaning lens using Lens Cleaner CD/DVD
* If lens got misplaced you have to repair/replace it - For this you have to go to shop.

if u hav a warranty

go to shop n replace it

Dont give it to service center

but then why in the world would both of the lens decide to go bonkers at the same time...........






Can there be any software fault.......
a malware or virus??????

its impossible to be a software fault, and not possible that cancelling the autorun process, a fault could be created in the hardware... I think just some coincidence that these two problems happened at the same time...
Try cleaning ur lens, and if tht dosent work then go for a replacement.
Also did some power outage occur at the time ? Do u have a UPS and a surge supressor ?
