DVD read problem
I have a very unusual problem, one I have never seen in all the years of building my own computers. In have done a clean install of Windows 7. I installed Office 2007 and Adobe Photoshop without a problem on my custom built desktop.
But when I attempt to install any game, the DVD fails to read it. In most cases, it ejects the game DVD with the message that I need to put a disc in the drive. Of note: all of these games install and run fine on my Vista laptop. The games are Obllivion, Witcher and Dungeon Siege. And yes my laptop has the video card to run them.
Specs:
Desktop:
CPU: Intel duo core, E7400 @ 2.80GHz
3 gigs of ram, 160gig hard drive, yes I know it is small.
Nvidia 7900 GS video card, Samsung 23" LCD monitor and a Audgy 2 ZS
The laptop is the same except it has a 8600GS video card and on board sound.
