    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
