If you insert a CD/DVD does it spin up, is there a light on the drive door that flashes? Try putting a Windows or Recovery CD in teh drive and rebooting the machine.

I am trying to establish if the drive is functional or not. If it shows no signs of life at all then you probably need a replacement DVD drive.
