    As well as cleaning the lense, what other troubleshooting methods are there for a malfunctioning laptop CD-ROM drive?

    Could be a faulty laser, inside you might be able to find a dial to adjust the height of the read laser like there are inside PS2s.

    That sounds complicated :confused:

    I splashed a load of CD cleaner liquid over the lense (not sure if that was wise or not :D ) but it didn't make much difference
