Solve : Computer not reading one game disk, but reading another?

Answer»

I play Battlefield 2, and I jsut recently baught the Booster Pack from Microcenter. The original game works just fine, but whenever I put in the Booster Pack CD to install it, my CD Drive starts making weird scratching noises and it does not read the CD. I already tried exchanging the CD's to see if maybe the disc was defective, but neither disc that I have baught works.

Any ideas?

The Battlefield 2 Booster Pack requires a 8xDVD Rom.

You may presently have a CD-Writer or just a Cd-Rom.
