Hello there! I bought a hp pavilion laptop about 7 months ago. I could play dvds and cds on it. It was working fine until my little brother did something to make the computer crash. When I tried to reboot it it said to enter my computers recovery disk to restore my computer. After I did I tried to play Civilization 4 and it wouldn't play. I then tried multiple cds and dvds and nothing happened. When I load the disks in it at it first sounds like it is loading the cd up but nothing happens. I went to my computer and looked at drives but all I saw was (C: )local disk and (D: )HP_RECOVERY. What does this mean?? I want to cry from stress because now I can't even play World of Warcraft because I have to reinstall and it takes like 2 1/2 days to download off the internet!!

Normally the CD/DVD drives are coming with the Software CD. I think you should re-install the CD/DVD drive in your system using the Software CD.
