if you want my AIM send me a pm and i'll gladly hand it over 2 you:)

but for reference reasons i post here:)
re; what software are you trying to burn/read with?
now lets reinstall your drivers and see if that helps:)
pls boot into safe mode:)
--------------------------------------
BOOT INTO SAFE MODE (JUST DO IT!!)
1)Start>My computer> right click >properties
2)hardware tab
3)device manager
4)CD-ROM/DVD drives (names will differ) right click uninstall drive
5) restart into windows
6)upon login you will prompted to install new hardware if not go start>control panel> (make sure your in category view, left hand corner box to enable this)> "Printers and other hardware" >left hand corner "Add hardware", not "ADD PRINTER"
once done you may reboot or not
------------------------------------
