How do I clean my CD player/burner on my laptop? (Dell Inspiron E1505 from 2006) Whenever I try to burn CDs lately they end up sounding choppy and skippy. I found an article on how to remove the drive from a desktop for cleaning, however I would like some info on how to clean my laptop "lens" or whatever it's called. Thank you!

Just noticed that you said 'Laptop'... duh on my part ... might want to post this in the 'Blank Media' section also, as it deals with burners as well as media...

I've added some instructions to the existing CD/DVD drive cleaning thread.
See that new post at http://www.digitalFAQ.com/forum/show...3265#post13265

It's really easy.

Thank you for the help with the laptop CD burner cleaning info. We had some nice dinner music at my Mom's for Thanksgiving because I can now burn a CD without skipping and distortion! YEA!! Thanks again!
