Troubles with optical drive (iMAC Intel)

Hi,
I think that there is a problem with the fan or other of the optical drive in my iMAC.
For a DVD Video, no problem
For a game (children), problems !
I think that the temperature increase, and so the reading process couldn't work properly.
My son used to play 30 minutes and after that errors.
If I try to run the game when the iMac is hot, it doesn't work.
If I try to run the game at the start of the iMac, OK for 20-30 minutes !

Same troubles for lot of games, but for some others ... no problem.
Strange, isn't it ??

Here is the spec of the optical drive (ATA Series)

OPTIARC DVD RW AD-5670S :
Modèle : OPTIARC DVD RW AD-5670S
Révision : 2AHH
NCQ (Native Command Queuing) : Non
Disque amovible : Non
Éteindre : Non
Notification Async : Oui

I never try to burn a CD ... so I can't say anything about that.

Could you give me advice for that trouble ? please.

Thanks a lot

(sorry for my poor english, I'm french)
 
Not necessary to double post. This is a forum full of (volunteers) here so double posting is likely going to annoy people and not add any more urgency to getting someone to help you.. If your question didn't get answered the first time, you may want to add more details to the original post or look for professional help. I personally am a professional but don't want to play 20 questions back and forth to get a clearer definition of the problem you are having. I can only assume you are talking about an optical drive problem, right?
