Philips DVD/RW Not Working

I have a Dimension XPS Gen-4 with a PHILIPS DVD8634 +/-RW.  Every so often the drive is not recognized during startup. Now it's not reading DVD's.  I was successful in reading the disk on another computer using an HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4242N.  So I know the disk is good.
 
I ran;  "AutoPlay Repair Wizzard & Tweak IT".....from the Predator's website with no success. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
 
Thanks.

Hi KTWO,

Are you sure this is not the Philips 8631 drive, I cannot find a reference to 8634.

Lets run a couple of the standard trouble shooting steps for detections issues and such.
Same CD/RW link, Section 15, article 1; Section 20, article 3; Section 11, article 2; Section 12, article 10 (ignore the refernce to Roxio)

Best Regards!





God, grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway,
the good fortune to run into the ones I do and the eyesight to tell the
difference.

You are right, it's model #8631 and not #8634. Typo on my end.
 
Thanks for all your suggestions. I will give them a try and post the results.
