My DVR-111D can't read some DVD's - and they aren't scratched

My brand new drive can't read some specific DVD's. Theese are fine discs, not some noname craps, but TDK. Whatsoever - it reads: "Windows system can't read this disc type. Disc may be broken, or it uses non windows-compatible format" - This message was previous in my mother language, so it's a little piece of translation. It would - probably - sound different in original english windows.

Hi, can you guys access the merc stealth driver page? I can't get in to download a new keyboard driver. Also, sometimes my PC freezes when I put a disc in the DVD drive. My RAID drivers are all up to date.

Upgraded the firmware on both drives. It shuntered a bit on the first go but it didn't freeze and the disc eventually read ok.

My cd drive does this as well not a good thing but I have found that if you put a disc you know it will read in then anydisc you want it to read it should read it. Mine only does it every now and then. I have also found that if just after the cd door closes if you give it a tap on the cd door it will read the disc try it it might work for you. I have taken mine to a repairer and the drive is operating fine and they could not figure out what was wrong for it to do that and yes it did do it for them to.
