If this is just a software problem using system restore to a time when both worked should correct it.
I would guess the laser for CD media is either dirty or burned out. There are TWO lasers in your drive. One for CD and one for DVD. You can try a lense cleaning kit or replace the drive.
edit to add: I meant to perform a system restore from the start button, if that option is available on your system.
