There should be a small hole somewhere on your CD ROM. Put something like a paperclip in it and it will open.

Use WinISO available at http://www.winiso.com/.\n\nNOTE:\nTo open ISO files you never need a DVD driver.

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.

You may need to reset some dll files. Follow the instructions on the Microsoft link below if your system problem occurs when trying to play a CD or a DVD:\nhttp://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=899873

Check whether the power cable & the data cable to the CD/DVD is fixed properly. Also clean the lens with a lens cleaner CD. \ns

Are you sure it's a DVD Rom?\n\nHas it played DVD's before?\n\nTry re-installing the software.

I'm no expert on how to fix computers, but if your CD is still jammed in there, look for the manual release. There should be a tiny hole on or near your CD tray; stick a pin or something slender in there and your tray should open.

if you are so inclined, you can physically remove it from your PC, then reboot your PC.  When windows starts up again, check to see that the hardware is gone.\nshut down\nReinstall the hardware, \nreinstall the driver\nif that doesn't work, you probably need to replace the DVD drive.

try putting in another cd to see if it reads. If not, you probably have a driver detection error and will need to download the specific cd-rom driver for your computer. I suggest chatting with tech support on your computer manufacturer's website (it's free). They will definitely be able to give you the link to download the appropriate driver.

Its not the computer, its the driver.\n\nLook on your CPU and see if you have a DVD driver. It should say DVD on it. If it just says CD-ROM then you cant burn DVDs.

What OS do u run ur pc on??\nTry scanning ur PC for hardware changes and if that does not work, goto your hardware - device manager and select ur CD/DVD drive, try to reinstall the driver from properties option. \nIf ur system is W9x or lower goodluck.\nALso have you tried to clean ur CDRW drive?

Go into Device Manager, uninstall the cdrom, then reboot. If that doesn't work, reinstall the drivers from the disk that came with the burner, or OS. If you don't have these disks, then download the drivers from the manufacturer's website. What's happening is that you might have corrupted drivers that may need to be reinstalled, or, replaced with newer ones. :)

if there is a dvd in the computer there should have been software to play it if you have the discs that came with it look and see if its there if not go download one

To to My Computer, right click, go to Hardware, Device Manager and see if you really have a DVD/CD ROM drive.  My guess is you only have a CD drive, which will neither play nor burn DVDs.\n-MM

Idiot Check,\n Does the DVD work in a different player - If so then the disk is not the problem.\n Try a different DVD - If the second disk works but the first disk does not then your disk may be "finger printed" -wipe it off.\n\nNone of those work then you do have either a hardware decoder or a software decoder?\n\nIf it is a software decoder then posably the drivers are messed up

Have you tried playing the DVD with another program? It might be that your DVD is scratched or something.\n\nGood luck
