My hard drive crashed a few weeks ago and I had to do a complete wipe and OS reinstall. Ever since, my CD drives will read anything except my game cds? I was ablt to reinstall BF3 since its downloadable but if I put my Crysis Warhead or Wars cds in the drive never activates therefore I can never start the install process.

 

I have reinstalled the drivers, tried other disks like photos, movies etc and they all work fine, just no game cds?

 

If anyone has any ideas or can think of anything to try I'd greatly appreciate it!

 

Thanks!

Where you say it will read anything do you mean that it will read DVD's and not your crysis DVD or is it just reading CD's ? Also please note that you can only install Crysis wars 10 times. After that it will not register. You have to call Crytec for permission to install again. (Not that this pertains to your problem)

If you have another DVD drive try swapping them out. That has cured problems I have had with DVD's a few times. Also you can try to wash the DVD with dish soap and warm water. As it may just be dusty/dirty. If you need more help hit me up please......

We really miss you in the server and would be nice to have you game with us on Thursday night.....
