multi-disc installation won't read 2nd disc

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I am having the same issue as Bob. just did a clean install of XP, installed about 15 programs just fine. Then when I try to do multi-disc installation games, it won't recognize the 2nd disc. This has happened with two games so far. I'm not going to try any more of these things because there's no way that both games could have a defective or dirty 2nd disc. I'm at a loss, but there's gotta be something else that's responsible for the error.

Any help would be great!

The games, by the way, are Call of Duty 2 and Battlefield 2 (older games, but both have worked on this same machine with same specs and same exact hardware).
