    Hi there
    first off please list all your system specs,

    You posted that the drive sometimes doesnt read CDs, how old is this drive maybe its on its way out
    Have you tried using a cd lens cleaner

    Do you have any burning software installed at all?

    Go to Device Manager,double click on your CDRW drive and select properties, then select drivers-driver details and post back with all the drivers listed

    Example
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\cdrom.sys

    Please give us as much information as possible ;)

    Hi m8
    Sorry if you misunderstood my question i actually wanter to see the drivers listed just like my example
    But if you have 8 in there i would expect that one of the third party drivers is causing a corruption, maybe resetting to defaults will fix it, have a read of this thread and try the fix suggested (this is a vbscript so you will have to disable your AV before running)

    Try that and let us know how you get on :)
