    My CD drive won't read one of my discs.
    I recently bought a game today. The Total War Battlepack. Rome: Total War, and Medieval II: Total War.

    It won't read Medieval II: Total War, but it'll read Rome: Total War.

    I also bought Starcraft II about a month ago and it didn't read that so I just downloaded it from the website. But I had it in my CD drive today, and it was reading it, so apparently it started reading that disc at some point.

    What.. the hell do I do? I think it's actually SCRATCHING the disc, rather than READING it just judging by the sounds and the disc itself. New scratches are appearing at random whenever I try it and then take it out again.

    Oh, yeah, I'm using Vista Home Premium on a Dell C521 computer by the way.
