I have a Dell Dimension 9100 and I have been having problems lately with the DVD drive. It seems OK reading CDs, but has lots of problems reading DVDs. Is there any software out there that I can get that can test it for me.

I tried the obvious thing of removing it from Device Manager, rebooting and letting XP SP2 pick it up again, but the problem is still there.

Have you tried updating the firmware?

Or chucking a lens cleaning disk in there, just for a luck?
