Why won't my DVD play on my laptop?

Why Won't My Laptop Play Dvd's?

  • I'm having a problem with my laptop and I'd like some help. I was trying to watch a dvd on my laptop last night and for some weird reason it didn't play it. It was a brand new dvd too, (but I've gotten plenty of new dvd's that were rejects.) so to make sure it was my laptop and not the dvd, I put in one of my dvd's that I know is in perfect working condition. It's in my laptop right now. And when I put it in I could hear the little 'growling' noise my laptop makes when it's reading a dvd. However, the menu for me to play my dvd didn't appear. The dvd drive is still there on the My Computer menu, and when I went thru the troubleshooting program...two of them to be exact, neither of them detected any problems. And what's really strange is that when I put a cd in the same compartment, the cd's autoplay menu will come up just fine. What could be the problem? Please help! Thanks! (No need for websites or troubleshooters. I already tried all that.) I have a Windows 7
