my EMachines model W265o CD/DVD disc drive quit working, it worked good one day and the next it didn't work when i install a disc the disc icon appears beside the curser but nothing happens. the drive acts like it wants to turn but it don't it just makes kind of a grunting noise. I did s a system restore from my computer using F11 but that didn't help. also my SYSTEM RESTORE does not work either. need help

Things fail all the time, the cheap component like that should not be problem at all, just get new one,, it cost 20$ for cd/dvd reader/writer. you can even get it for 20$ in CompUSA (if u got it near you) and get it installed for free if u don't know how to (last time i checked with them)
I newer found it worthwhile even to attempt to fix,, UNLESS you know some1 maybe stuck something in there (trash, papers,) like kids playing
