I place a DVD chess program into the D Drive and the disc just keeps
spinning
round. The computer looks as though it is reading it but does not install
it.

Any ideas anybody.

Can you see the files on the disc through Windows Explorer? The disc might
not play automatically, or your autoplay might have got turned off.

Have you another computer with a DVD drive you can try the disc in to see if
it can be read there?

Can your drive read other data DVDs okay?

You could try gently cleaning the surface of the disc.

Silly questions, but worth asking (don't be insulted, I've seen people do
both these):-
- your drive IS a DVD drive, not just a CD drive...?
- you HAVE put the disc in the right way round?
