CDs eject after 10 seconds but DVDs play fine

[james-bailey]

Hi, my MBP 15" Unibody 2010 laptop all of a sudden doesnt accept CDs, just ejects them after 10 seconds of been inserted.
However DVDs play fine. What may be the problem?

The only thing I can think of thats changed recently is that I am running this laptop without a battery, (untill I receive a replacement) as the old battery swelled and nearly pushed the trackpad out! All works fine however.

Cheers,

James

Sounds like a problem with the laser or the lens.
