A CD-Rom drive will not be able to read a DVD because DVD and CD drives use lasers of different wavelengths to read discs.

I'm trying to install a PC-DVD Game to my LG CD-ROM CRD-8521B, It plays CD's but wont play DVD's of any sort. Really need help...

The CD rom is limited to CD's. In order to read a DVD, you will need to install a DVD rom. My suggestion is to get an external DVD Burner - i just bought a Samsung slim external DVD burner that reads / writes CD's and DVD's.
You will have no luck ever reading a dvd in a cd rom.

LG CRD 8482B Internal 48x CD-ROM Drive. Does not write have current driver but will not burn cd's

According to the LG website, this unit is a CD-ROM (Read Only Memory) which means it only reads CD's. You'll need a CD Writer (CD-R or CD-RW) in order to burn CD's.
