I noticed the problem first when My DISCover Drop and Play, a gaming platform, didn't start up at all.

after further inspection i noticed that I couldn't play CDs or DVDs either.

i updated all the drivers to no avail

if you could help, it would be greatly appreciated.

If the drive doesn't read anything (CDs or DVDs) than the drive might be shot. First try to use a lens cleaner (you can get one at your local Best Buy, Staples, etc) and try that. If there is no avail, then you'll need to look into a new drive.
