I assume your DVDR is removable. On the back are gold colored 
connectors or something.
  An opposite set of connectors  sits in the back of the laptop slot.
Maybe there is some hair or dust in there. Maybe some of the 
connections have gotten grimy or tarnished or reacted to humidity . 
Maybe the snap in thing is loose.
Just sounds that way.
You go to an electronics stre and buy a bottle or spray can of 
connector cleaner and some long handled anti-static swabs. Blow it all 
out and then clean all the connections with the cleaning solution.
I like Jif-action but you are unlikely to find it. even head cleaner 
will help. But they are different.
