im running vista + im using a laptop
well i was installing nero 7, but then suddenly the installation stops and tells me to insert the disk, so i take the disk out, put it back in, still doesnt read.
so i cancel the installation and open up the disk drive again, but when i did that it starts making the “dont open the disk drive stuff is running” noise (which is actually quite loud) so i try to close the slot, but it just pops right back out, continuing to make the noise.
i restart my computer, i think “alright all fixed” pop open my drive, it starts going crazy again
i right click on the drive icon, go to eject, does nothing, suddenly a window pops up saying that the drive is in the middle of something, and that opening it can cause it to fail what its doing, but in the end no matter what i did it wouldnt stop with the noise (or re-ejecting itself)
so i disable the drive then restart, try opening the disk drive again, keeps going crazy.
restart one more time (btw these are the normal restart, as in start menu -> restart, not powerbutton restart)
and now im here, in need of enlightenment, the device is still on “disabled” =/
help would be much appreciated
EDIT: i attempted a system restore, did nothing :[
