    Now the problem is i cant read some DVD's with this. Some times it is showing like "Please insert a disc in to the drive"

    Some times its showing upon opening the drive icon like " Drag files to this and burn" even if the disc having the data. And if i tried for two more times then i will get the content.

    You should check to see if there's new firmware for your dvd drive. If that doesn't work you're going to have to either buy a new drive or send it in to hp for repair.
