What version of Nero and Windows Media do you have? Do you have SP2?

Try cleaning it. If that doesn't work start looking at replacing it.

Sharpy,

Go to Device Manager, right-click & uninstall your driver under the
'DVD/CD-ROM drive' heading. Then reboot. If this doesn't work try using a
different brand CD, or are you saying no CD with data can be read?

That's not what your first post said. Please post consistent information.

Do you have a CD-R or CD-RW drive, or is it a CD-ROM drive?
