My HP laptop (Windows Vista) has stopped reading discs, both burnt and real. I have no idea why...

When I place a CD in the drive, it starts "wizzing" for a second or two, then it stops and makes weird sounds at 5 second intervals. Can some please tell me what's happening? :eek:

you can't do anything, if it doesn't read any of the cds, you have to change it
