[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1601021, member: 131855"] Have you tried both a CD and DVD in the drive? I've gotten that message before, particularly from Toast, and found later that the drive was failing. It may play/burn a CD and not a DVD or vice versa. If I recall correctly I think the CD and DVD are read by lasers of differing wavelengths allowing the possibility of working for one type of disc and not the other. [/QUOTE]
