hello and thank you for your question.
- when did this start happening?
- any changes made to your system recently?
- have you checked the BIOS to see if the drive shows up there?

I think it started happening after downloading something from the internet. No changes made to system. I have not checked the BIOS as I don't really know how to do that.

Yes, I've tried a couple of restore dates. The last date I tried was Oct.1/09 which is approximately one month after I purchased the system.
Accepted Answer
Well then your machine is still under warranty. I highly suggest that you contact the manufacturer before we try to monkey around with it because that will void your warranty. If you do something they will be very quick to blame you for the issue and void your warranty.
You havee paid for the warranty so take advantage of it while you can. Contact HP technical support and just tell them your DVD drive has developed a fault and you have no idea why and your machine is under warranty.
You can chat with and on-line HP Technical person using the link below:
