This is driving me up a wall.
I just built four identical computers using Gigabyte motherboards. I installed Windows XP on each computer with no problem. I insert the CD containing motherboard drivers, Anti-virus software, etc? that came with the motherboard and the CD-ROM drive cannot read the CD. This happens on all four computers using the four different CDs that came with the motherboards. The CD-ROM drives work fine for all other CDs that I have tried.
At this point I was thinking that Gigabyte shipped defective CDs with all of their motherboards. But wait, I try the CDs in an older computer with a non-Gigabyte motherboard and it reads the CDs just fine. I burn a copy of one of the CDs and try it with one of the new computers. The new computer reads the burned CD without a problem.
All I can think of is that there is some weird incompatibility between the Lite-On DVD-RW drives that I am using in the new computers and the Gigabyte CDs. Yet the same drive reads the CDs just fine in another non-Gigabyte computer!
AAAARGGHHHH!!!!
I have never ever seen anything like this having built 200+ computers?
