Don't have much details as it's not my computer.
A friend has an Asus laptop with Win 7 Ultimate (up to date) which until a few days ago was happy playing DVD's through medial player.
Now the icon says it's a CD drive and will not play DVD's
I ran this http://support.microsoft.com/mats/cd_dvd_drive_problems
& it seemed to repair it, but nothings changed.
It will open the disk & display it's contents & it will play CD's
Does it need replacing? or is their something that can be fixing
