Liteon LDW-851sx Fine with DVDs, nothing with CDs.

I have a LIteon LDW-851sx that burns/reads DVDs but won't recognize any type of CD. Any thoughts? Using Windows XP SP3. Firmware is up to date.

Could be that the burner is dead. Tried to clean the laser beam with a cleaning disc?

I just burned a DVD with no problem. Reads and writes DVDs OK. Won't read audio CDs, data CDs or blanks. I have tried it on two different computers with the same results. I'll have to get a cleaning disk and try that.
