CD drive won't spin up
My CD Drive is fairly new (under 8 months) and its a 48x24x48x optowrite drive that i got from bestbuy. Just yesterday after i finished writing a CD at 40x i put the CD back in the drive to test it and it wouldn't spin up. I tested a bunch of other CDs and none of them spin up. Its not that the power is disconnected because the drive opens and closes and the lights blink. I already tried restarting the computer and that didn't do anything either.
Anyone have advice on what to do? I won't be able to test any of the ideas for about 2 hours or so though I'm posting this from my school webdesign class so i get some things to try right when i get home. I've got about 10 things that need to be burned tonight and i don't feel like using my two 4x drives that take 20 minutes to write a full CD.

I can't take it back either, its been to long, i have no receipt and don't have the manufacturer warrenty thing anymore... oh well, i love taking things apart
It only has 2mb cache is that really enough to prevent making coasters if you are using the PC while you burn a CD?
