my laptop is not detecting disk, both cd and dvd. I got a laptop from my dad since my own has gone on exile for some days now.
Becasue there were some useless files and documents on the laptop and i didnt what to be boared by any of these files and documents, i decided to format the system. After formating with windows 7, the laptop refuses to read all the disks that i tried on it. I was thinking that may be the cd rom is faulty; but if that is true, how come was the cd rom able to read the windows 7 during installation? The system was x32 bit before i install x64 bit now..could this be the cause? Hope to see your responses. Thanks in advance.

I have tried upto 8 disks on it but none worked except windows 7 software.

Definitely you have to change the DVD rom and notice the difference
