HP 1040d not burning audio CDs

Hiya :-)
Been having this problem for a while, and would really appreciate if anyone can shed some light!
DVD HP 1040d used to burn everything fine, but now won’t burn audio CD’s. Have removed Secondary IDE atapi, drive refound, same error, but Imgburn went from writing a CD that showed tracks but them empty (verify had seized up), to, on second attempt, verify kicking off totally.
Tried with Nero … first it imports tracks, but then says not got plugins. Installed Nero Mega Plugin Pack, and now Nero won’t even import tracks … album art small comes up, and programme closes.
Ace Mega Codec Pack … made no difference.
WMP was first thing tried, and said unable burn.
Updated BIOS on PC (Dell Dimension Desktop 1100b) a little while ago, and have just realised that maybe this was when problems with burning audio, although I somehow managed to burn a CD by using ‘remove Secondary IDE atapi’ thing in the meantime, but don't seem to be getting anywhere with that now, unless it was the Primary one meant delete?
ASPI programme install for XP – daren’t try as someone noted system wrecked.
Many thanks, Cat

firstly take out the drive and loosen the screws that hold on the top and bottom covers, the blow out the dust and fluff.
Once you have cleaned it out, and if it is still not working then a new one is around £170
