My optical drive will not insert anything!

Hi.
I recieved my new XPS M1530 laptop yesterday running on Vista Home Premium, and it was all working fine until I discovered that it wouldn't insert any disks into the optical drive. The only way I can insert a CD is to press the eject button and slide it in then. However, most of the time it dosn't read the disks then anyway, and just ejects them within 10 seconds.
I don't know if it is a hardware problem. I have tried doing a scan on PC Checkup which came back with nothing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :smileyhappy:
Thanks

    sounds like a DOA optical device.   IT happens rarely.  Contact Customer Service and get it replaced.  You may have to sh ip your computer to them, however.
