Drive Help For My Dell Inspiron 1520 Laptop…?

I have a Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop and my d: drive stopped working…there was a disk in the drive and I was able to pop it open via the small hole and remove the disk and when I close it back the green light comes on briefly then fades back out…I wonder if the drive is bad or if I just need to update a driver?!? I dont think the drive is shot since the light still comes on so that leads me to believe its still working but I’m not a computer whiz either. I went to the dell support website to look for a driver update but was unsure of which I needed. Can anyone please help? Thanks in advance :)

    Right click on “my computer”, select “properties”, click the “hardware” tab at the top, select “device manager” and then on the right side find your cd/dvd drive and right click it, select “uninstall”. Restart your computer. It will load the default drivers and you will be good to go.
