Maybe the music CD is copy protected and hence not opening using explorer.
In any case do try to run a 'CD Lens Cleaner' and see if software disks open properly or not.
Please update if the problem is fixed or still there after trying out these steps |

If you have a CD that was made on a CD-RW at home, some CD-ROM drives lasers are not calibrated to read recordable CDs, whose surface is different that that of a facrtory pressed CD's. Put the CD in a CD-RW and it should work. |

Hi,
I am having the same problem. I have NOrcent RW481. Initially it was reading and writing all types of CDs. After some install/uninstall I made related to NERO , my CD drive is not recognising home-made CD-RWs.I am just wandering for solution... |
Re: CD ROm Drive not ready by Anonymous Ghost on September 09th, 2004 01:49:30 PM
I am running Win2K and have problems similar to those stated by others here. I have two CD drives; one is CDRW/DVD. Both used to read all types of files. Then several months ago, they just stopped working correctly.
They will both play audio CDs and will read CDs others and I have made with data backups on them or HTML files. But stick a Software CD in them (to install or fix something) and they act like there is no media in the drive. Cannot open in Explorer or otherwise. Asks if I want to format the disk.
I have been very busy so have had no time to track down the problem, but now I need to reinstall MS Publisher to get a newsletter done and seeking some solution.
I am concerned that it was a Windows update that caused the problem as I had a period of time when I was getting errors with explorer.exe and when a computer restart would prevent my anti-virus programs from reloading - those have been corrected and I can find no traces of any trojan or virus on my computer. And I have run several spyware programs - I followed all advice re tracking down what is starting up on my machine to make certain that was not the cause.
I have unintalled and reinstalled the devices with no change in results.
Just wanted you to know you are not alone. |

Has anyone received a good response to this error - I'm having it also and cannot figure it out! |
Re: CD ROm Drive not ready by Anonymous Ghost on September 29th, 2004 10:28:56 PM
I believe a windows update caused this problem - I have a gost backup disk from before the update and all works fine. no I cannot transfer needed files from one disk to the other. Can anyone help with this cd-rom issue? |
Re: CD ROm Drive not ready by Anonymous Ghost on October 21st, 2004 05:05:22 AM
I had similar problem with Nero that causes these symptoms. Uninstalling will help.
Now I got the same problem without Nero and I'm searching for solution. Does anyone has any knowledge? |
Re: CD ROm Drive not ready by Anonymous Ghost on October 21st, 2004 05:40:02 AM
Ok, I found the problem! Google Desktop Beta affected same problems with my Win2000. Uninstalling helped again. |
D drive does not see CD disk by Anonymous Ghost on November 24th, 2004 01:42:30 PM
Using Windows ME:
When I open "My Computer" it shows the A drive, C drive, D drive ( CD rom ) etc.
When I put a Disk (cd-audio or program like HP installation disk) into the D drive and try to open, I get a pop up, saying to put a disk into the drive. I've checked the drivers, and it says that this device is working properly.
Any help as to where I go from here will be appreciated, Thanks Paul.
PS have a Happy Thanksgiving |
