So, I just recently got a CD full of pix, and I couldn't read the disc on my home computer running vista. I can read the CD at my work machine running XP, so it's not the CD. Vista will read purchased music CDs, so the drive does work. I have deleted the upper and lower filters in the registry. I have uninstalled the CD drive from the device manager. Neither solved the problem. I have an ACER Aspire L100, and the CD/DVD is a Matshita DVD-RAM UJ-85JS Is there anything else I can do that might fix the problem?
