This is most likely a copy protection issue.

hrm...do you have imapi cd burning support for windows enabled? check your services and make sure that's running. also check the properties of the drive in question and see what the "cd burning" tab says. i guess the latter is more important...

Try blowing some compressed air in the cd burner/player, there may be some dust that got in there during shipping.  Also, make sure your CD's are clean.

easiest way to see if this is a hardware problem is to test if the cd will play outside the windows enviroment\n\nif you have a recovery cd - try putting the cd in the drive and the rebooting - if the cd is recognised your optical drive is fine and it must be you settings in windows \n(if it goes through to the recovery obviously DON'T recover)\n\nif you do not have a startup CD - ask a friend if they have one - or visit packardbell.com and download a generic startup ot bootup cd - do the same as above \n\nif it does not recognise the cd you have a obvious hardware problem

If the media you are using works fine when you burn from a different program, such as Nero or Roxio, it's possible that Windows Media Player isn't burning your discs properly.  Windows Media Player is one of the least compatible programs I have seen as far as burning Audio CDs.  If you have Nero or Roxio, I recommend using one of those programs to burn your Audio CDs.  (Nero or Roxio normally come with your computer if it is equipped with a burner or with the burner if you buy it retail.)  If you don't have Nero or Roxio, it may be worth the investment.  \n\nBut before you purchase any software, take a blank disc to a friend's house and see if their computer will burn a disc that is compatible with the player in question.  If it will, then it's likely your software.

pretty valid answers up there.. if u tried burning a cd.. and there is an error.. u can't burn on it anymore.. clean the cd before trying to burn.. or sometimes opening other programs while burning cd's can halt the process halfway.. ends up wasting the cd and have to put a new one in and start all over.. it sucks.. happens to me sometimes.. could be faulty cd also..

What software are you trying to use to burn the CD? It could be that the song has a method of copywrite protection on it and the sofware will not allow you to burn it.

Make sure your drivers are updated, make sure the CD is clean, make sure the media is good, try another cd, buy a new CD.\n\nSorry, I wish I could be more help.

do you mean rip the music onto your computer, burn the music onto another CD, or remove a song from a CD that you just burned? \n\nYou cannot remove music from the actual CD, btw. Once it's there it's there for good. Try getting a new blank CD

Try using the CD writer on another PC.  If the CD works, then it's your computer.  If the CD doesn't work, the the writer is on the fritze.

It can depend on how the CD was burned.  Burned CD's are not compatible with all CD Drives.  It needs to be burned under the setting that lists most compadibility when its created.  If it was burned under this setting then the software used to burn the CD is not compatible with your hardware. It does not happen as often but it does still happen.  There may not be much that you can do.  Have the CD burned using different software or try changing out you Reader.

Ok, \n\nFirst try to eject it from my computer , open my computer and where the cd is just right click and choose eject , if that dosent work , theres a little hole on the front of the cd-rom , just put a paper click into and it should open and last it could be that the cd is not working anymore

Do you mean the game doesn't install or run? What's the problem you're having? Have you looked at the CD itself (right click on CD icon and click explore)? Any files on the disk?\n\nHow did you get the CD? Mail order? Street purchase? e-Bay?\n\nIf from the Street, you may have been ripped off. Especially if there aren't any files on the CD.

Do you have problem playing all the Cd's or just some. And i am sure you checked this in windows event manager. Well you can use a Lens cleaner and see if it works. If that does not completely resolve your issue and you have problems playing all Cd's contact a computer technician to fix this problem. If you have no problems playing any Cd's and you are just worried about the message in Event monitor then do not worry. But use a lens cleaner and use good quality of Media (Cd's)

Have you tried running a Cleaning CD through your drive - it looks like an ordinary CD with a spiral of tiny brushes on it, some have music tracks to make it play for a few seconds, if it hasn't simply inserting it a couple of times will do the trick.

You know, I have a sneaking suspicion that your problem might - just *might* - be related to the fact that you "got it off the internet, and it's a burned cd."\n\nCall me crazy if you want, but I have a sneaking suspicion...
