I've tried to uninstall and reinstall in Device Manager. I've even tried to run a Windows diagnostics test and it just says that the CD is unreadable when in fact it works on other devices. It was working perfectly fine a month ago. Please help me as I don't know what to do anymore. I've tried rebooting/restarting it.

Same problem on my ASUS laptop (1.5 years old).
Solution trivial: open drive and dust off the two tiny colored things with clear plastic (the optical read and write lenses).
Dusting it off solved this very frustrating problem where a DVD would not read at all, and opening using explorer ejected it.
