ok well among alot of problems with my computer, my Cd-Drive is the most needed to be looked at (i dont care that that doesnt sound right) well about a month ago my cd drive wasnt showing up in my computer. and if i put my ear to my computer, i could hear it spinning really fast. so one day, i kept it out and put a disk on it. well i left it slightly ajar (i have one like on laptops where it isnt automatic) well after about 20 mins, i heard it start spinning really fast, so i pulled it out, to see what it was doing. well anyway it would keep doing that untill i restarted the computer. so now nothing will read. but i can take it out which i could not do normaly when it was spinning. all i want is for my drive to read. can someone please tell me what i did?
p.s. my computer is a dell dimension 4600c and its 3 years old

the red box? There's two of them.

And if the big one is shaded over that mean you dont have an optical drive (or you've not selected one)
