prolbem reading cd

[hiya5150]

I have a cd writer/dvd player from LG. It will play audio cd's as well as video cd's, and dvd's. burning cd's is not a problem either. but it won't recognize cd-roms. I've tried running several "game cd's" and the sytem acts like there is a blank cd in the drive.

any ideas?

Try cleaning the drive with a cd cleaning disk or if you feel lucky a cotton swab and alcohol
