If you have some form of Windows XP I would suggest trying this: Right click on the " My Computer " icon and choose " Properties ". The third tab over should be named " Hardware " so click on that. Click on " Device Manager " and look in the tree for your cdrom. Right click on it and uninstall it. Then reboot, and see if this fixes it. If not, try booting it up with a bootable cdrom in the player to see if it is bad hardware.

If you are using windows xp try downloading the 127 KB file from Microsoft
and run it. Scroll down the website page to 'Download Guided Help'.
