My CD-drive wont read my Age of Mythology disks is there any way i can fix it?

try a different cd first to see if your cd drive is even working.. if it is then check your cd for scratches .. sometimes in older cd drives the slightest scratches make the cd unreadable.. i would suggest if the cd drive is unable to read most cd's you should replace it .. try staples or electronics stores like it.. there cheap..easy fix read up on safe instalation of cd drives

Cd opening wont accept cd. radio works though

Hi,
I have 3 suggestions for you.

Firstly, many older CD players can't play CD-R's, that is CDs that you have burnt yourself. If you are using original CDs, then that won't be the answer.

Second suggestion is that a very few CD players expect the CD to be inserted upside down - I have a Pioneer CD player that works like that.

Third suggestion, unlikely to work, but you could try a lens cleaner.

Failing that, it will need expert repair and that will probably cost more than the player is worth - just buy a new one.

Need to Download Belkin Setup Assistant

I would suggest the following:

in another computer attempt tocreate an image file of your driver cd as you mentioned you still haveit (I strongly suggest you don't lose it), then with a usb thumb drivemove that image into the computer where you want to run the wizard (the one that does not have the cd drive working). now for you to create an image iso file on the othercomputer (virtual image of your cd) you need nero or magiciso oranother program to create iso files from a cd, now to read that imageon your cd-trayless computer you can use a program called magic disc.

there are other programs you can use to make iso image files that are free

free alternatives to nero

magic disc
- this is free and it will create a virtual cd drive on your computerwithout cd drive, you just need to mount the iso file you created withthe other programs and it will work like a cd drive so you caninstallation cd without ever inserting the actual cd.

good luck!

How to do a system recovery when my cd rom drive doesnt work?

got to have a new cd-rom drive mate, most practical approach.

other options are network boot (done in offices with many computers), USB boot (if your BIOS supports it & you need to have a USB device with the bootable image of the system disk), etc.

Reformatting acer travelmate 2310

Put in the recovery cd, and restart the computer. Its going to say something like: "Press any key to boot from cd", then press any key. It should start up. Tell me what it says when you restart you computer with the cd inside the computer.

My cd is well ....i have no idea

Sounds like a tough problem to have because half of the CD drive is working fine (the reading part) but half isn't (the writing/burning part).

Here are a few suggestions:

1) try a different CD writing program, if the Wizard says the CD-Rs are full, try a version of Nero or a freeware burning program.

2) if, when you load the blank CD, Windows says that it's unable to burn it, it might not be a CD that your burner can recognize. If you are using different or new CDs, try another one or borrow someone else's blank CD. I've had it happen where a set of CDs that I bought were bad and couldn't be used. Also, some cheap CDs don't work on some CD burners.

3) It might be a bad CD drive. If it's an older computer, you might have to get a new CD drive. Before doing this, I'd try reinstalling the software and drivers for your CD burner and try both the suggestions from above. Good luck
