The drive has failed.

Either that or the interface on the motherboard has failed. Have you checked to see if it is still in the hardware profile?

Hi, All

I have an HP zv6000 laptop, running XP home version 2002, service pack  2.
Installed in the laptop is a DVD/CD burner (Original with the  laptop)that is
no longer being recognized by the laptop.  When I put a disc  into it, the
green activity light on the CD tray lights up, the CD seems to spin for a short
period of time and then nothing.  The optical device does not  show up in the
device manager.  I have had to purchase a USB outboard drive  to burn CDs and
DVDs.  Any thoughts on the matter?
Thanks
Tracy
