    you have obviously lost your driver for the CD. Right click my computer
    and locate your drivers

    too hard to explain here sorry but you can do it yourself you will need someione to show you in person'

    Take your computer and get it repaired this should take care of the problem.

    Hello, what is likely happening is that you have either added or removed some software from your computer that has caused this whole issue. if you are using windows vista, i would assume you are getting a message similar to "windows can not load the device driver for this hardware". in any case, some would advise you to do a system restore back before you made any changes. where i find this highly unreliable, i simply recommend clicking on this link http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;314060 and clicking on the fix it for me icon, and it will fix everything, restart your computer and you should be fine. if the link doesnt show, its on the microsoft website, just look for windows fix it.

    Access Device Manager and see if the CD Drive shows any problems. That is a start.

    If you have no idea what I'm talking about, Google away.

    i assume it might be called DRM. which stands for digital rights management. basically it prevents usage of cds on computers to stop illegal copying. Its being fased out from now on tho, basically just a by-product of early to mid 2000's RIAA-driven paranoia
