Does the DVD drive show in MyComputer ? DVD drives are either IDE or SATA (just like your hard drive) and don't normally need a specialized driver.

Sounds like a dead DVD drive.

I would think that a 5 year old laptop is not worth what it would cost to have a technician replace the drive. You can buy an external USB drive but the laptop probably can't be set to boot from an external CD drive so you will not be able to load Windows. Sorry if I can't be of more help.

if I insert a disk I can ear a slight buzzing as if the unit is running but nothing shows on the screen
