The last thing that my dvd-rom was able to read was an Adobe Acrobat installer disc.

The dvd-rom is an HP: jlms dvd-rom ltd-166s
I'm using Windows XP

I've tried cleaning the lens with a lens-cleaning disc, but I still can't get the drive to read any kind of disc. I can hear the drive spinning intermittently in attempt to read it, but it never does read it. Obvisoulsly I can't view the contents on the disc through windows explorer either.

The device manager is not showing any problems.

Did my drive die? I've barely use the thing. Thanks!
