94828 2002-10-31 09:35:00 My CD-ROM drive on laptop doesn't seem to read some CD-Rs and CD-RWs they read fine on other laptops. this happens mostly to Audio CDs.
Its an Acer Extensa 711TE machine. The CD-ROM drive is a MATSHITA UJDA150

Any suggestions

94829 2002-10-31 11:22:00 Want mine? It doesn't read any CD's at all...

Ugh, some older CD drives have difficulty with some CDrs. Some older drives won't read CDRW at all.

94830 2002-11-01 09:25:00 like Sik suggested, older drives have difficulty reading cdr discs, also the laser might be slightly damaged or dirty, try runnng a cd drive disc cleaner and, some more cdr discs should work.

cheers,
