guilliamo Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 "DVD" drives have separate lasers internally for reading CDs & DVDs, so the symptom you are seeing is typically caused by a problem in the CD circuitry. HOWEVER, I haven't seen that particular problem in a while...modern DVD-ROMs & DVD writers are much more reliable than those of a few years ago. Soooo...there is a possibility that you are seeing some sort of driver issue. Would help if you post your exact setup info...what OS, exactly what drive, etc..
