A friend of mine bought a CD-ROM disc and his drive refuses to read it.
He has been told that it is because it is a "gold" backed disc i.e. a
recordable disc, and that his cd-rom drivers are not properly
configured.
The machine will read any other type of disc, and my machine reads this
disc no problem.
His drive is a Creative Labs ( Matsushita )
My drive is an Aztech Labs
I have also been told that Mitsumi drives do not read this type of disc.
Is this true or what!
Anyone have any ideas or advice?
Thanx in advance
                    Col.
