I have an older LG (HL-DT-ST DB-RE) internal blue ray drive that has been in a win 7, win 10, and now a win 11 updated machine. Been a long while since I tried to use it but today I did. Slid in a DVD called "The natural" and it is just not recognized at all; blue light flashes for a long time and I can here the drive trying to read the disc to no avail . Tried standard DVD thinking that this drive would do both, as a test, and same thing. My standard LG drive works fine; pulled the cover of the pc and checked the plug ins but they look just fine. Tried updating the drivers and still the same. Drives are not expensive so I could just go out and pick another one up, but would like to try a few things first with your help!!!!!

- Building a new desktop on the horizon; this was definitely a budget build based on circumstances at the time.
