I dont know what happened, but I cant get ANYTHING from CD to launch. This happened after I installed the net framework 3.5.

The computer works perfectally fine, no crashes..its not slow, but nothing from CD works.

HELP!

I might have not explained this right. I go into task manager and its sitting there in limbo (any game or` whatever) using no more than 18mb of memory. No matter what I do it does the same thing for every thing I try to run. It does start somewhat..but when it comes to actually running the program it sits there in limbo.

Sorry for not explaining it right, I was kinda pissed off about it when I typed it up :P

Do I just swap and install new drivers, or do I even need to do that with xp?

Alrite, Ive tried another disc. Before I was just trying to get BF2 to launch, now I put the disc for RO in, and I get the splash menu, but when I hit install it does the exact same thing as the bf2 disc did.

There are no drivers for optical devices needed.
Just hook up another device and see what happens.

Try running something from a CD in safe mode?
