Lens must have weakened.

Try it on friends PC n c if problem persists.

Or straight way get a new one , no use of repairing it.

It seems that optical drives being manafactured these days are not of the same quality of those in prev. days. I have been hearing so many cases of optical drives dying in a year or two ... Bad bad bad

Even i feel the same..
Previous optical drives were too good evne im using the creative one for abt 5.7 years..
BUt the samsung one 2.3 years old is abt to die...

brothere sorry to tell that ur lens is damaged.
now if u don't want to buy a new one,open the drive cleans the leans with a liquid based cleaner for a intrim relief.also not sure that is will work.if yes there will be severe loss in perfomance.
