Blu-ray Hi-Def Equipment : laptop BD drive

laptop BD drive

It won't play BDs anymore it just does that "bduh-bduh" noise a few times then nothing.

However dvds play fine

Any advice?

Re: laptop BD drive

Such drives have two lasers inside: One for Blu-ray and one for CD & DVD.
Sounds like the Blu-ray laser is broken. Cheapest and most easy option, is to purchase a new drive.
You can find such laptop drives on Amazon, where electronic workshops are offering such drives.
Just make sure it matches yours.

Re: laptop BD drive

Thanks for that
I guess the laser head may have snagged whilst the tray opened/closed
