Hi, Since the last few days I have been having issues playing DVD on my laptop.
I have tried several things to get it to work but it didn't fix my problem.

My computer doesn't show the DVD Drive in This PC or Device Manager.
I have inserted a CD into my computer but the DISC doesn't make a sound like it use to.
Everytime I use to boot my laptop I could hear the DVD DRIVE making a sound.
But now I can't hear a DVD DRIVE Sound during BOOT.

Can someone please tell me if my optical drive needs replacing.
Also will any optical drive work with my laptop.
