Yes, tried a few different CDs which I know work but no joy. I'll try a CD cleaner, good suggestion, but not sure how it'll 'play' if the CD player itself it not being recognised by the system.
Phil, if I need a new CD drive, what cost am I looking at?I have a spare CD drive if you need one?
Thanks all. I've been 'having a play' and it seems I've got the CD working....at least some of the time.
