Disc Drive Freezing
Post Body

The disc drive on my HP PC tower has been freezing up a lot lately when I try to play CD's in it. Windows Media Player will start up after I shut the disc in the drive, and usually after only a few seconds, the Player will stop working, and the drive freezes up. I go into Control Panel, click on Programs and Features, then turn off Windows Media Player, restart the PC, then turn WMP back on after it starts up. The disc drive works okay afterwards, for awhile, anyway. Then I try to play a different disc, the problem starts up again. I've noticed that the icon on the Tower next to the Lightbulb icon *which I've shown in the pic I've included* flashes green and stays green while the disc drive is frozen. What is this icon, and why does it stay lit while the drive is frozen, and does anyone have any ideas how I can prevent this from happening?
