You could try downloading the following 'fix' (Autoplay Repair Wizard) that's been released by Micro$oft, and running it. I experienced a similar problem, and this seems to have cured it in the majority of cases. There are still occasions when I need to reboot for CDs/DVDs to be recognised after a change over.

pass to device supervisor and un-installation the DVD/CD Rom. Reboot and notice if the computing device would not see it as new hardware and reinstall it. If it would not, and the hardware remains un-put in, close the computing device off, open the case, floor your self and unplug the tips cable from the stress. If there is yet yet another stress related to a similar tips cable, make particular to place it indoors the hold close place. Reboot the computing device. After it adjusts for any alterations, close down back and opposite the technique. Now, the computing device might desire to re-regulate for the hardware configuration, installation the perfect drivers it reveals. If it would not come across a appropriate reason stress, pass to the producer's cyber web internet site and get carry of it from there. I might desire to have prefaced this by asking the glaring question, 'is this hardware top matched including your working equipment?'

Maybe is that the driver for your DVD drive is not installed anymore. Sometimes it crashes and for some stupid reason is desables itself or uninstalls itself. Well you can reinstall it by putting the original installment CD in to install the driver. But if its a external DVD meaning not connected from the inside of your computer than maybe is not connected. But of course you should know that. And if its the internal DVD then it could be that the wire on the back is not connected and last solution, your dvd is dead and only spins and nothing else.

If it still opens and closes then thats a good sign. Try loading a program and see if the DVD plays, sometimes the automatic loading is turned off. If that doesnt work, go to your computer manufactures websit and re-install the DVD drive's drivers.

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software. Detailed instructions at http://tinyurl.com/yk5zpr
