im having the same problem with this drive and samsung has not helped at all. i cant even upgrade the firmware because the automatic upgrade program that upgrades the firmware comes up with a warning window right off the start, but the window is the wrong size for the text and you cant quite see the OK button or click on it to continue. just a reflection of samsung quality. nothing but garbage. to me samsung is just a big scam. once they have your money, thats it , 0 support. oh well you got me again samsung, my fault. ill just throw this drive on the pile of samsung.

Hi,

You must be excited in playing that high definition Blu-Ray disc you have. Regarding your concern, CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo Drive unfortunately, cannot play this format. You need to have a Blu-Ray drive to play that thing.

Thank you for visiting FixYa! have nice day.

try to run the Microsoft Fix it option to delete the upper and lower filters and if this does not work, update the firmware and try to use a lens cleaner. if nothing works including system restore, it might be time to get a new drive. hope this helps
