When you put in a CD or DVD, the drive itself does a quick check.

So it's nothing to do with any software drivers or codecs or applications or the design of your backpack.

The laser is probably dusty. You could try cleaning it if you can get at it. Or, easier/cheaper/more likely to fix it, just get a new drive and swap it.
