Vista crashes when installing games

If I insert a game in my dvd-rom I get the dreaded blue screen with an error
that it tried to open a thread that was not it's own and windows must shut
down.
OS vista home premium 32 bit
Games Company of Heroes and Battlefield 2 complete collection.
Just to add a little drama FEAR and all the Metal of Honor games loaded and
played just fine. I can load in a dvd just fine also. All drivers have been
updated and tried to run as XP did not help either.

Does this happen with just games or does this happen with any software you
try to install from your DVD?

I would have to say that is going to be a hardware issue with your DVD
player. I Play BF2 and BF2142 never have had any of those problems. Have you
looked in your event logg to see if there is anything?

I had the same issue with my Dell computer. Once i connected an external
DVD drive the problem went away.
