It's probably a stale/bad connection or defective drive. The only way of finding out is to open it up and get busy.

Yep, same thing happened to me.

CD would'nt work for a year but I wasnt using it much so I just rolled with it.

Just before sending her in for a repair I opened her up to replace the drive myself (I installed it originally).

Couldn't get the drive out because one of the screws was badly worn, so I checked all the connectors and put her back together.

Problem solved.

Worth a try I'd say.
