A few days ago when I was listening to a CD on Real One Player it started jumping the song and wouldn't play.

Then the next day I stick it in and it said please insert a disc, it's been doing that for a couple of days now and I don't know how to fix it.

I really want to listen to it! I'm going crazy! fear

Use Windows Media Player v10

buy a cd player. or get a diff copy of that cd.

Is the disc scratched?

Is it a Neil Diamond cd?If so then the pc just got smart

The disc isn't really dirty or scratched.

I tried Media Player and it still said there was no disc

mabe it's the evil CD pixies

It must be something to do with my hard drive or real one player or something because I stuck in one of my brothers CDs' and that didn't work either.

I think it's because I didn't upgrade Real One Player the other day, how do I do that?

Why dont you just throw the cd away and then download the songs onto your computer from a website and then burn em unto a cd?

I don't have a CD burner.

I think it' something with the Drive.

You can always go and buy another one!JM

or she could just do what beastro siad and download the songs

That takes way too long and will slow down my computer. It's not the CDs', my rbother CD that had no scratches on it didn't work either.

any of the cds work on your comp?
does you comp dectect your cd rom drive?
how old is your cdrom?

The computers about 6 years-old.

It doesn't detect the CD's. In Real One Player it says please insert a CD, it's the same with Windows Media Player.

The CD works fine in my Disc-man.

im not talking about the players
im talking about your actual comp

when you open up "my computer" do you see the cdrom drive icon?

Yes.

When I try and go into it, it says "D is not accesible. The device is not ready."

What's up with that?

and you tried using it with a cd with computer software and it doesnt work?
you may need a new cd rom...
i would tell you to check other things but you said you comp was 6 years old and you use your cdrom quite often right?
i think its your actual cd rom

Is there anyway to fix it?

I really want to listen to my CD's!

well you could by a new cd rom and install it it should be pretty cheap now...
cause dvd roms are pretty cheap now too
well where i am they are....
i guess you problem there would be who could install it for you...
cause if you get the shops to do it they may rip you off...

Oh I hope the problem just fixes itself

I just wanna' smash the bloody thing with a hammer!

I knew I should have saved the CD onto my computer!

even if you dont need to but a new cd rom the problem still seems to be one where you have to fix the system setup...
would you be able to find a person that understands computers
cause its kinda hard to explain the thing you need to do over the net without seeing the actual problem

Yeah, my Uncle fixes computers for a living.

I tried using a DVDs' online features just before but it didn't pick up the DVD either.

why not ask him to check
i know it has something to do with your cd rom...
nothing to do with real player or media player.
its definately your CD rom by the sounds of it

Aw shit...

I'm fixing the solution. I'm downloading the songs on the CD that I like

lol hahaha

I knew if I put my mind to it I could fix the problem

Okay, I need help now.

My brother's acusing me of braking it. I told him that's just what computers do after awhile then he got crazy saying they don't just do that.

Can you post something prooving that that is what happens to computers when they get old.

well its actually recommended that you should replace your cdrom every 6 months...i think it was..
but it not nessesary you did have it for a while and would have used it alot... nothing lasts... things that get old get damaged easier...
its not just computers alot of things are like that...

How much does it cost to replace it?

well i cant really tell you cause we use different currency...

Oh, okay. Thanks anyway, and thanks for your help.
