Windows Media Player cannot find the specified file. Be
sure the path is typed correctly. If it is, the file does

Try this:
Go to Sytem Properties -> Hardware -> Device Manager ->
DVD/CD-ROM Drives delete all of them, then go to IDE
ATA/ATAPI controllers and delete Primary and Secondary
IDE Channels. Reboot the mechine.
