Using XP? yeah
Go to Start Control Panel System Hardware Device Manager Then expand 'DVD/CD Rom Drive' What is displayed under that? _________________ 9 out of 10 times you don't know what the fuck you're talking about

| sometimes the shops which sell pc's take out the factory fitted drives and replace them with fucked up ones.. then to get it repaired u have to go to the same shop.. and they earn more.. happens in my country.. lol.. get ur pc checked... or try other copies of the game.. and sometimes if you are on a laptop the software for your drive needs to be installed before you can use it.. but getting your pc checked would be my first suggestion.. maybe its lacking a software..

o__O I had this problem, too.
The CD/DVD wasn't showing in My Computer. In otherwords, it didn't recognise the Drive I spent all day on the phone to Toshiba, and eventually they told me i had the reboot my PC. Lost loads of my stuff, but the problem was fixed. You could try that. +REP if this works It's usually a driver problem, _________________ Top |
