What specific cd/data disc that you have a problem.. and also may i know if this was an original copy, oe it was only a recopy..?
let me know
thank you,
Please try the discs on another machine to see if the problem is with the cdrom drive in your unit.
Let me know how it goes.
if the cd's work fine in another cd rom drive, I suspect you have a faulty drive, or possibly dirtly lens. as cd dvd drives don't cost more than (including shipping)30 $ New, (www.newegg.com). I would replace the drive with a new one. If your drive is new, I would try it on another pc to see if you can replicate the problem, If you can replicate the problem on another pc, and the drive is new (still covered by warranty) I would get it warranty replaced or repaired.
