Hello?

Help me please.

I was watching a dvd just yesterday on my laptop, it was acting fine, just like normal. But, today I turned it on (like I usualy do) and put in a dvd to watch.... nothing happens. Usualy a pop-up pops up saying "What would you like to do next?" with options,but like I said, nothing... So, I go into "My Copmuter" to open the program by double clicking on the "DVD/CD Drive (E:)" icon, and all I saw was "Drive (C:)" and "Drive (D:)"... NO DRIVE (E:)!!! Then I went into "Windows Media Center" and on "TV + Movies", then I click "play dvd" and... an ERROR pops up!

Even after trying multiple other Dvds I still get the same results.

What do I do???

Internet Explorer 7.0

Thanks,
