My cd drive wont load a game

I just bought football manager 2012 but for some reason when I put the disk in nothing happens for about 2 minuets then it say's “I have inserted a black CD”. I thought it might be the CD drive but I put an audio CD in and that worked fine, I checked what specification is needed to run the game and that’s all fine. Not got a clue why it’s not working, any help?

I am sure thatyou have already tried to clean the dvd and the optical drive lens.

  • My palm life drive wont load

    Hi all and thanks in advance for any help recently my palm life drive has stopped loading i turned it off one night and in the morning i turned it on but it got stuck on the palm logo and wont go any further ive tried everything i can think of ive tried hard resetting and soft and both have the same result it gets stuck even when left plugged in throughout the process any help or advice and anyone know how much a repair costs?
    Post relates to: LifeDrive

    i was afraid of that, but i cant work out what i did wrong :/ i always ejected the drive, i used it earlier today and transfered 30GB worth of files and it worked, then i had it in my pocket and went out.. came back and when i tried to use it again after a few hours it just did not want to work and i tried everything..
    i guess ill just have to go buy a new 64GB one this time lol ad be extra careful

  • Dvd drive wont load disk

    I can't put a disc into the DVD drive.  Is there a reset-type procedure I can use to make it willing to load discs?

    This issue may require some qualified technician to replace the optical
    drive; depending on the usage and age of the computer, the unit may
    be wearing out or some part in there has failed. And depending on the
    age and use pattern of the computer, the hard disk drive may also be
    getting weak. {Sometimes, for a little more than the cost of one service
    replacement, a second can be performed at the same time.}
    If the problem is just some foreign object which somehow got into
    the drive, perhaps a good service tech could look inside & see it;
    maybe even remove some obstruction, if one exists in there.
    Otherwise, the options are probably limited due to the way the drives
    are compact and generally the computer would need to be opened
    up to get into them. Some independent service techs and small
    companies who know Apple products can do a good service and be
    able to restore functions. Some may be able to give you a fair price
    because they have access to the parts and are knowledgeable, too.
    The iBook series takes some effort and skill to get into them and do
    repairs, and not cause other damages as a result of this effort. My
    suggestion would be to inquire locally, if at all available or likely, for
    someone qualified; then inquire farther away. I had a good service
    from wegenermedia.com on my older iBook at a good price; and
    sent it across the continent via the US Post Office. A flat-rate box
    with bubble-wrap & other padding may be adequate...
    Estimates are subject to inspection in many cases, and at times,
    a part may be prohibitively expensive if the tech or company is
    not one who does this work often. wegenermedia is a specialist;
    there probably are a few others who do portable Apple repairs in
    out-of-warranty computers, to factory qualified specification.
    Good luck in this matter, & happy computing!

  • X99S Gaming 7 - Windows ME driver wont load

    OS: Windows 7
    Motherboard: X99S Gaming 7 (H.40 BIOS)
    First Issue --------------
    MSI motherboard installation CD includes drivers such as the Windows ME driver which is required by the Included APP "MSI Gaming App" to run, but the driver will not load. I have installed it 3 times, rebooted, and still the MSI Gaming App says it is required when i try to run it. Also Live Update 6 reports that driver as not installed each time even though it installs it. Any Ideas?
    Second Issue ----------
    MSI Live Update 6 reports that a newer verison of the BIOS is out, I have version H.40 and the new version is like H.480, i tell MSI Live Update to install it, it reports its installed, i reboot, and it says I still have H.40. Any Ideas?

    Don't use Live Update for updates. Download and install drivers manually: http://www.msi.com/support/mb/X99S-GAMING-7.html#down-driver&Win7 64
    Download bios manually also: http://www.msi.com/support/mb/X99S-GAMING-7.html#down-bios
    For flashing use MFlash (included in your mainboard's bios).

  • Disc Drive wont Load Leopard DVD

    Got round to buying Leopard this week and inserted the disc only for my Macbook to make some rumbling noises and eject the disc. I was wondering if there are any solutions to my problem or if anyone else with a Macbook is suffering from this problem.
    Thanks in advance, Scott.

    I am having the same problem with a replacement MBP 2.4GHZ which arrived today from Apple. I have a Leopard family pack which has no problems on 3 other macs. The Leopard "CPU Drop-in DVD" from the DOA computer and this replacement are all summarily spit out by this MBP??? No dirt or scratches involved. This computer has passed an extended Apple Hardware test. Will let you know what Apple Care has to say. After falling victim to the unresponsive keyboard issue on the first MBP, I am not a happy camper to say the least.

    1st, you will not be able to activate your PPro1.5 on ANY new computer, see next link for the special version you MUST use

    2nd, you already mentioned Virtual XP, so if a direct install doesn't work, that would be the way to go... or, to just do what SHOULD work from the start, just do Virtual XP

  • After I update to firefox 4.0 it wont load any of my facebook games. And I don't know how to fix it. Please help Internet Explorer sucks!

    I updated to firefox 4.0 and it wont load any of my facebook games.

    Facebook games are usually Flash based.<br />
    Your More system details list show that you have the Flash plugin, so that should be working.<br />
    Make sure that you do not block Flash.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • Recently downloaded/upgraded moz-fire and java but now my fav game at POGO wont load? help

    game - "yahtzee" - at POGO website wont load since i recently 9-22-2011 downloaded and upgraded mozilla firefox. in addition, i downloaded/upgraded JAVA. ive followed numerous tutorials and conducted many tests but to no avail.....

    I should have explained further. The game opens in a new window over to the upper left of my screen, leaving the original page underneath. I tried minimizing it so that I could get to my toolbar and did the View > Zoom > Reset. This has no effect. The lower portion of the game is still not showing. Using other browsers the window or frame of the game is much larger, therefore everything shows.

  • Oem version p6n platinum wont load realtek lan driver

    Hi I got an oem version of the p6n sli platinum off ebay new. It seems to work well, but it refuses to load the driver for the lan. ran the nvidia driver utility, but no dice. Also wont load the SM Bus driver. I dont know what that is. More importantly Id just like to get the onboard nic to work. Annoying every time I boot it goes through the wizards for the two unsuccessfully. Id like to have maybe tried to flash the BIOS, but I dont have a floppy drive. Any help is appreciated

    oem version of the p6n sli platinum
    Are you sure it is an OEM-Board?  Look for the following information an post it here:
    --> Model Number (Printed on the board itself between PCI & PCI-E Slots), MS-7350VP means OEM in your case, MS-7350 is the retail version
    --> BIOS Version (should be displayed on the POST Screen (look for A7350I?? V?.?? ), post the full BIOS ID:
    Quote
    off ebay new
    OEM Boards are build for companies like Medion, FSP, HP etc. to be used as part of complete systems sold under the specfic brand name.  OEM Boards are not sold on the open market.  That means either your board is not an OEM board or it is not necessarely new.

    So in simple terms, the fix invovled ensuring the nvidia module is loaded before the bbswitch module. I'm not sure about the necessity of the things that follow but the fix may possibly also require removing bumblebee and possibly requires removing nvidia from repos and building the driver downloaded from nvidia.
    This fix could be completely unrelated to the problems I was having with arch but I cannot verify the fix on arch specifically cos I installed every distro under the sun trying to get it all working and I got it to work on a non arch distro.
    So... I'm not sure if I should really mark this a solved because I haven't/can't verify it on arch and technically the solution involved changing to another distro but in fact, I know it has absolutely nothing to do with arch since I saw the same behaviour on 3 other distros. If I have time, I will reinstall arch and verify but for the moment, I have a lot of work to catch up on now that I have a working nvidia driver I can actually use for dev
    Anyway, what I think is going on is there is some bizarre issue with bbswitch that stops the nvidia driver from being found because on the current distro I have installed, if I have no bbswitch, no bumblebee and no nvidia modules loaded or services running etc. I can modprobe the nvidia driver and all works fine. I can then modprobe the bbswitch driver and that works too. IF I modprobe the bbswitch driver first and then modprobe the nvidia driver, I get this error that says the nvidia module cant be found. The location it prints is in some updates directory whcih is odd too because I installed from nvidia source and never installed updates at all and made sure that there were absolutely no repo nvidia drivers or updates etc.
