vcd movie on it!
only dvd working

hi
tks for the advise,
i wonder this is a vcd player, but my problem now is the dvd rom can't even
read the data cd! it show an empty disk!! but it is woth some date files like
jpg etc.

anyway will try to install it & see what happen

tks
 
A DVD drive uses two different lasers, one for CD and one for DVD, if it's
reading DVD but not CD it may be that laser is faulty.
Before you condemn it try a laser lens cleaner disc.
 
hi again

installed the cd player below, it can run vcd now! tks
but i checked again more cd, only 2 out of 6 cd can be read! 1 is with jpg
photo & 1 is with mpeg files! other jpg or data file cd still not able to
read! some showed empty disk, some showed full but not able to be seen!

so it is not the lens problem!
my machine is sony vaio pcg-v505p with cd writer, hope you may help me to
figure out what went wrong

tks for the help
