Default CD Rom problems

Recently I've had afew problems with my cd rom reading cd's.

Usually when you put a cd in it will automatically open whatever it is and now it doesn't If you go to your cd drive on the desktop and open that it doesn't show any files ?

I've just taken the pc back to the shop in town that built it as i wanted the cd rom replaced, they tried 2 new units on it and they both done the same thing.

All the interal cables have been changed so its not that either, IF you hold the cd rom after you have loaded it with a cd you can feel it spin a few times then it stops as if there is nothing in there ?

Something isn't right thats for sure tried re-installing the drivers and updating my pc but that also made no difference.

Anyone on here good with these odd faults ?

The guy at the shop said he had a similar fault with a pc once that turned out to be something to do with the registry settings ? not something I fancy playing with tbh.

All I need to do is put some damn music on my pc so I can get it on my Ipod for the cannonball

Any advice ?
