Default GA-EP45-UD3P Not Booting from CD

All,

HELP!. All of a sudden my machine stopped booting from CD. I have tried it with several different CDs, all of which used to boot. Now, none of them do?

I am not OC'ing and I am using load optimized defaults. I have ensured that the first boot device is the CD ROM.

Please help!

Double check the cables to the drive and make sure they are not lose and check on the MB side also. If that is all good check to see if the drive is capable of reading disk in windows.
