well I think you've established that your cd drive is fucked.
Can you send it back or do you have an on-site warranty?
Time to call whoever you got it from.

Subject: some ideas...
check the cables inside - they may have come loose...
and as you have your case open you may as well give all those bits and bobs inside a nice spring clean - just get a magnet they pick up the dirt a charm and make life easy.
just sweep the inside a few times and everything should be tickety boo - no need to turn off the the computer while you are doing this - too many power cycles kills electronics and power supplies ya know
need any more top tips just ask

I tried it with a magnet but it seems to have made it worse. Maybe it wasn't powerful enough. Think I'll try it again with a stronger magnet.

yeah you probably missed some. You know its much better to steam clean it to get out all those none-metallic bits and peices although of course if your new magnet is super powerful....

I stuck it in the washing machine on delicates and it's come out spotless but still not fixed! Now it's making funny noises and there are sparks coming out of it.

with mex's machine down that just leaves dex and he probably won't turn up or will leave after 15mins so we might have to rearrange...
