Well since you just bought it. Go return and get a NEW one. NOT the refurbish.

I was wondering that too but he did mention that it spins up so the drive is getting power. Can you see if the laser at least comes on (laser eye turns red)?

Like he said, the lazer did not move at all. The dvd drive broke 99%.
