Having DVD-rom Problems

[Mystic-Ghost]

I have some problems with me BF2 DVD-rom, sometimes when i put the disc in my drive it keeps on spinning without seeing the DVD, moest of the time I have to put in the disc for a couple of times before my drive sees the DVD in my drive. Do any of you know something which could help me>?

Only thing I can offer is start with the basics?

Is the disk clean?
Free from damage (Cracks/splits/warp) etc?
Is the Laser Head on your player clean?


Try shutting auto-run off and place the disk in the drive then start it with the desk-top icons?

I already checked the basics but i didnt have any cracks/splits/warps etc... but it only happens when i play BF2, not other games...

Hmmm.

Did the start from the desktop icons make any difference (I am assuming not)? as oposed to auto run?

Create a disk image, and dont worry about the physical media again.

Does this only happen with the BF2 disk or all?
