Hello rames20,
Your DVD is broken or Corrupt A
Most common causes:
1. Bad Memory
2. Drivers incompatible with Windows
3. Digitally unsigned drivers
4: Seems to happen most often with gamers, indicating possible hardware/driver problems. The reasoning is that games seem to push the hardware to its limit.



  • Be sure the CD is good, clean, unscratched, etc.
    Then be sure the CD drive is good.
    Connect it to another computer or connect a different CD drive to this one.
    Also, be sure that all cable connections are fully pressed down into their connectors. You might also swap the cables, themselves.

Check the pins on the IDE connector on both the main board and the CD drive. Be sure none are bent or missing.

Possible Solution Best one is
Buy A different one

Regards and Enjoy:)
