Take the drive out and clean it? WTF sort of advice is that?
Man thats just bad advice.
Me personally i would be removing the case cover and checking the power cables are securely attacked and the ide/sata
cable is also connected properly. If they are i would then change the power and ide/sata connection separately to see if thats the problem.
If that does not help i would then throw the cd drive out and get a new one.
