Hi,
First of all, Merry Christmas to everybody, I hope you have a great day free of any hardware problems
Right, here is my problem. I got the Band of Brothers DVD boxset as a gift from my parents (Opened early ). I have seen the series before, so I just played the making of the series in the DVD drive on my PC, which all went fine. After that, I watched 1 of the episodes with no problems. It seems that some of the disks don't work though. I enter them into the DVD drive, the green light flashes a few times, but it doesn't read the disk and when I go to 'My Computer', it says there is no disk inserted. It doesn't seem to recognise some of the disks so it doesn't start spinning and reading them.
It is very strange, there seems to be a pattern with which of the DVDs the drive doesn't recognise. This is what I mean:
Disk 1 doesn't work, Disk 2 works. Disk 3 doesn't work, Disk 4 works. Disk 5 doesn't work but Disk 6 works.
That seems very strange to me. I tried all the disks out dowstairs on the 'proper' DVD player and they all work fine with no problems but when I play them on my PC, like I described with the pattern, the 1st disk works, the 2nd disk don't work, the 3rd disk works etc.etc.etc.
Any ideas what the problem could be?
Thanks and Merry Christmas again!
