Can't read DVD-R

Hi! I got a DVD-R with some data on it and my PC can't read it. I can see
the files in My Computer but when I try to copy them or open them I get a
read error. The disc isn't damaged or recorded incorectly. I used Nero's
InfoTool and it says my DVD drive supports DVD-R fromat. Then I took a peak
at the disc info page, it says ISO9660,Joliet,UDF as the file system. I took
a nother DVD-R that works on my PC and for the file system Nero says
ISO9660,Joliet. Maybe I need some special program/driver to read a
ISO9660,Joliet,UDF disc?

Tried it already. Didn't help. The problem turned out to be in the disc. It
had a lot of small scratches on it and that's why my drive couldn't read it.

Thanks anyway.
