Default Re: not reading cds

There are several possibilities. You could try giving the lens a bit of a cleaning using a q-tip and a very small bit of isopropyl rubbing alcohol. If it isn't the lens you may want to try cleaning the disc with a soft cloth, going from the center out to the edge without following the grooves. If after both of these the system still doesn't want to work the drive itself may be done and will have to replace the system altogether..
