It is fairly easy to open up a CD drive and clean the lens with alcohol
and a Q-tip, and then after the alcohol residue dries, wipe with a dry
Q-tip.  This fixes about half of the ones that don't read reliably anymore.
If that doesn't fix it, try another drive.  The lasers get weak, the optics
get dirt where you can't get in and clean them.
