Could be a scratched or badly copied DVD disk or the DVD drive itself? We need more details.

Go to Start/Run and type eventvwr.msc and press OK. In the Event Viewer, click on Applications and then System in the menu and look for any red "X" error messages that coincide with the time the error occured. Double click the error message to see the details. At the top/right of the details dialog box, click the small icon that looks like 2 text pages to copy the error message and paste the message back here in a reply to this post.

Go to Start/Run and type msinfo32 and press OK. Click Components/Problem Devices to check for possible hardware problems.

Again, this error is commonly associated with a bad copy, scratched CD or other problems that can happen to the disk itself.

However, in this case where the CD works in a different drive, you may want to do some diagnostics on that CD drive.
