TS-L532A unable to read CDs

i own an acer aspire 1362 with a TSSTcorp CD/DVDW TS-L532A. While the drive is fine when reading DVDs, it has lost its ability to read CDs. I've already tried uninstalling/reinstalling the drive a number of times, and tried changing the DMA settings but to no avail.

If anyone has a solution to this it would be much appreciated as I have no other way of reinstalling my OS.

thanks

Re: TS-L532A unable to read CDs

Hi and Welcome!

Please try if you can boot from a CD with this drive. I personally like Linux Live CDs for that.

If that fails, try if cleaning the lens will help.
