Briefly,my desktop is not accepting the second Ghost cd.Tt says
unabled to read cd,error message  ***.txt,cannot read.
The next step I took was to hae a computer shop copy the "faulty
cd",which they did,I will call it "2nd b Ghost".The later cd when
tried on my desktop gave the same error message as the original cd.
My theory here is that a:"2nd b Ghost",is a corrupted copy of the
original,ie,original is scratched and therefore corrupted.
b:the only problem here is that the cd player will not read the
original or "2nd b Ghost".Therfore replacing the cd player being the
obvious solution.Before I buy another cd player ,I would like a expert
opinion.
Personally,I think a: theory is more likely.
Therfore if I upload the original cd to a online storage location
could someone check the original cd for corruption?ie,why does my
desktop reject the cd,with error "cannot read cd ,file xxx.txt"?
Further clarificattion no problem.

Clarification of Question by axil221-ga on 16 Oct 2005 04:38 PDT

Another way I can put this problem:Why is it my desktop cd player will
not accept the second ghost cd.It returns an error.
Could someone examin the cd and tell me why?

hm, tricky question...

to make sure that you dont have a faulty cd, try to copy your ghost cd
content into your hard-drive, if problem occurs, possibly you have
defected cd (strached?). try another/friend's cdrom and repeat.

if everything ok, i.e. cd content can be copied, no worry, then. your
cd is fine. maybe you need to increase your processor voltage from
BIOS setup. in some rare occasion, a cdrom will fail read a cd content
if a processor lacks of power. strange, but once happened to me. i
failed to install new pc with win xp. installer only reach 50% and the
program reported failure on reading cd content/corrupted although the
cd is fine and cdrom working properly. by increasing cpu voltage by
one step (0,25v), i can finish my job!

If you have a friend with a computer, try the CD on his. If it works,
then it's probably your drive, if it gets the same error, it's
probably the disk.
