Maybe autorun is disabled. Right click the DVD drive from My Computer and
select Explorer. It should open a window showing contents. If you see error
like Drive not ready or similar to this. Explore Device Manager and check for
any error codes that might be listed for this drive.

Are you talking about one drive or two- it's not clear from your posting.
Is it showing in device manager? Are the cables still connected?
They don't last forever, sometimes it's time to buy a new one.
