alright. i have 2 cd/dvd drives in my computer
1 hp cd writer plus and 1 hitachi gd-5000 both on a gigabyte ga-7n400-l board w/clean install of XP Pro SP2 and all drivers updated
the problem im having is really wierd. i recently got my computer set up with a fresh install of windows xp. the first thing i did was "borowed" some games and installed them, using a keygen for one. the one i used a keygen for, bf1942 didnt work. so i installed my legal copies of road to rome and secret weapons of wwii also, and neither of those worked. then i installed a legit copy of generals, and that didnt work either. then MOH:AA and lo and behold! IT DIDNT WORK! now what is really wierd is that they all installed right. no installation problems whatsoever. the problem occurs when i try to play. it says "please insert correct disc and restart application." and this happened with all of them, and i was using the right discs. so i figured it was EA, and installed a legal copy of COD thinking it would work. my hopes and dreams were shattered a racket ball doused in liquid nitrogen and thrown against the wall, (which btw is the coolest thing that i will ever see in my life, and can only be better high). i got the same results every single time on both drives. i have never ever had this problem before.
but what confuses the crap out of me is how it installs and reads music cds, and just wont play... WTF IS GOING ON!
