Some DVD/CD drivers have two lasers: one for DVD and the other for CD. Not sure if this is your case but looks like the laser for CD discs is gone. The only way to repair it to replace the pickup mechanism. Anyway, it's hard to diagnose your issue as it may be caused by drivers, dust, software that interferes with the CD/DVD drivers, etc.

I have a new install system with the following configuration - MOBO - M2N68-AM Processor - AMD Athlon 64 x2 dual core 6000+ HDD - SATA1 Vendor WD 320Gig Memory - 2Gig DVD/RW - LG 20x (GH20) SATPI When I try to install Vista 64 it is very slow and after about 2 hours it says that the driver for the DVD needs to be updated. This is the 2nd drive that I've tried and the 1st drive had the same response. Things I've tried - Updated the BIOS Changed the SATA cables reset the CMOS changed DVD drives (the 1st one was a Sony DVD) downloaded all of the MOBO drivers, but they are not accepted Suggestions?
