I have two CD drives on my PC. One is a read only device.
The other can read and write CD's. About a month ago I
noticed that neither drive could read a software
installation CD or any CD which has data files. When I try
to view them with Explorer Xp tells me I have an invalid
data format.
Before this happened, I've been able to burn (on the
burner drive) and read data CDs on both devices without
any issues.
Both drives appear to be working correctly mechanically
and I can copy a music CD. I know the data CDs are good
because I can read them on other PC's.
It almost seems as if some configuration on XP
became "hosed".
Any suggestions?
