    Dear Group,

    I have a Compaq PC clone running Windows 2000 with an HL-DT-ST CDROM model
    GCR-8408B. I have had no problems with it - plays CDRs and audio CDs.

    As birthday present for my son, have bought (second hand) 'Battle For
    Middle Earth' CD Rom, in original box - not a copy. (In fact, I have two
    identical boxed sets - by mistake...)

    My drive will not recognise either CDR. I have tried them in another
    machines CDR which recognised each of them as the Lord of the Rings CDR. My
    drive whirrs and chugs for a minute before asking for a disc to be inserted.

    Any advice welcome.

    TIA
