CD/DVD Drive noises - Help Please!!

carolaryan · 2009-11-07 13:08:44

I've just bought a new laptop, and when watching dvd's it sounds like it is working itself up for a 'take-off'. It isn't all the time, but it does it a lot. I've tried it on hard/soft surfaces, but it doesn't make any difference. Is there any way to fix this easily, otherwise I'll have to take it back to the store.

the dvd drive in my pc also sounds like it shold be fitted to an airbus a380 when trying to watch dvds! i got a replacement one, same problem! just use our normal dvd player to watch dvd's now.
