RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this issue, use the following methods in the order in which they are

Clean the CD-ROM
----------------
Clean the CD-ROM. To do this, use a CD-ROM cleaning kit, or gently wipe the

cloth which can scratch the plastic and leave streaks. When you clean the
CD-ROM, wipe from the center of the disc outward. Do not use a circular motion.
If the issue continues to occur, clean the CD-ROM with a damp cloth or a
commercial CD cleaning solution. Dry the CD-ROM thoroughly before you insert it
into the CD-ROM drive.
If the issue continues to occur, proceed to the next method.
Clean the CD-ROM Drive
----------------------
If cleaning the CD-ROM does not resolve the issue, clean the CD-ROM drive using a
CD-ROM drive cleaning disc if you have one. If you do not have one, obtain one
after all other steps in this article have failed to resolve the issue. CD-ROM
drive cleaning discs are available in most computer stores.
