    Hi ya asher

    If you haven't tried already...
    I'd try a CD disk cleaner.
    Although it seems your DVD's are working...
    This still may rectify the problem.

    Otherwise...
    I would go into Device Manager...
    Remove or Unistall the problem device...
    Reboot and allow Windows to reinstall.
