    DVD drive not recognising CD


    Hi all, my first ever post in my first ever forum so I'm sorry if I do things a bit wrong.
    I'm very frustrated. I brought a Video editing software package to put my old videos onto the laptop but my DVD driver is not recognising the CD. It sort of starts to spin, then stops and then starts then stops for about 5 times. I tried a music CD in the drive and it worked. I've uninstalled the driver and rebooted the PC. Nothing. Previously I've just put the DVD in the drive and it automatically starts up with instructions on how to install. To be honest I haven't installed any software this way for a long time and I'm wondering is it because of the Windows 10 update?
    Any help, suggestions would be appreciated!
    Cheers

    :)

    Dell Inspiron DVD drive not working after installation of Windows 10

    I have installed Windows 10 and since then my CD/DVD drive is not recognised. When I reverted to Window 7 the drive was again functional. I have gone back to Windows 10 and again the CD/DVD drive is not there.

    CD not recognised after installing Windows 10

    If I insert a CD after switching on it is not recognised. Device manager shows cd/dvd drive. If I leave the cd in, shutdown & restart it is recognised. I can then burn, rip or listen to the cd but if I then eject & re-insert it returns to not showing/recognising.
    I have tried a number of the proposed solutions regarding troubleshooting but all to no avail.

    Well check your AutoPlay settings in Control Panel.. they may not be set to open when a cd.exe is inserted..
