Difficult to say what the issue is, the first thing to try is resetting the SMC and PRAM 2-3 times each. Check the link below for that.


If the resets do not work, the SuperDrive may be dirty and need to be cleaned. You would need to go to an office supply store to get a CD/DVD cleaning kit and try that. If cleaning doesn't solve the problem, your SuperDrive may be failing and needs to be replaced. You can get an external USB drive which would be less expensive then repairing a 5+ year old system but that would be your call of course.
