dvd burning not working on my sony DRU710A

hi i'm having the same problem but with dvds i'm useing sony dvd-r and its not burning, plus its not reading dvds, it started out slowly with a few dvds now its not ready or burning any it burns cds ..... would cleaning the drive work???? i had it for 2 yrs now never did anything to it..... what sould i do.... what do i use to clean it????? would that fix it? please help please thx

Sorry to pull up a pretty old thread, but I've just had my 710a crap out on me now too. A call to Sony had them tell me that since my drive is out of the warranty period (1 year), then there is nothing they can do for me. I should just buy a new drive.

While I completely understand the idea of a warranty period, it seems to me that if you've got a faulty product, you should take care of it regardless of the timeframe.

Any thoughts or ideas as to what I can to do persuade Sony to help me out?

Thanks in advance.
