We suggest that you start the CD-ROM drive in PIO mode to read. It is a common problem on many old CD-ROM drives. The problem lies in the DMA mode of the CD-ROM drive. If you don’t want to use PIO mode, then you can also upgrade the firmware, and the problem will be solved. To opt to PIO or DMA mode, under Windows 2000 or XP system, you can enter the Control Panel, and click System -> Hardware -> Device Manager ->IDE ATA/ATAIP Controller to make your settings.
