Carole, I sure wish someone had posted a fix for the problem. I, also,
have a Gateway which will read some CDs and not others. All of the CDs
made by me.. and some, are original software CDs .. very old... CD
format. THEY will read on the Dell XP laptops and my old, old, Compaq
laptop.

I do not know what software driver is MISSING from Vista that will
acknowledge the CD is even in the drive. It is not the CD, it is Vista
and Gateway.

We are picking up a new Acer laptop with Vista on it this afternoon,
will be interesting to see if it is Vista or not. We will install
Windows 7 later.

Now, I am thinking, I should just copy these old CDs to Iomega external
drive and be done with it.

Has ANYONE found the fix?
