Hi! i'm using XP Home and I am having problems with my DVD drive. The DVD drive I have is a Samsung SD-616F.

It was working fine and all of a suddern it has just died out. I think this maybe a problem with my motherboard or the drives cable. The drive will not read any sort of media the light just blinks a couple of times when any type of media is inserted and thats it

What I wanted to know is would anything or a setting in XP cause this to happen and if so how can I resolve it.

Thanks
