Well, i have also faced this problem on my Xp computer for the same reason. This problem occurs because of device conflicts with the CD-ROM driver. To resolve this problem, repair the Windows installation. To do so, follow these steps:
- Insert the Microsoft Windows XP CD in the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, and then restart the computer.
- When prompted, press SPACEBAR to start from the CD.
- Type r to repair the Windows installation.
- Type the administrator password to log on to the Recovery Console.
- Change to the Windows\System32\Drivers folder. To do so, type chdir system32\drivers at the C:\Windows prompt, and then press the ENTER.
- Type rename Cdr4_xp.sys Cdr4_xp.old, and them press the ENTER.
- Type rename Cdralw2k.sys Cdralw2k.old, and them press the ENTER.
- Type rename Cdudf_xp.sys Cdudf_xp.old, and them press the ENTER.
- Type exit, and then press the ENTER key to exit the Recovery Console and to restart the computer.
