If you experience a problem playing DVDs or Blu-ray™ Discs, you
may be able to fix the problem yourself.
For general problems playing a DVD or Blu-ray Disc™ title, try the
following steps:
1 Verify that the disc is in a format that the drive supports.
2 Ensure that the disc is properly inserted in the drive tray.
3 Use the DVD or Blu-ray Disc™ player software that came with
your computer to view DVD or Blu-ray Disc™ movies.

authorized service provider to get it cleaned.
