    Hi all,

    I don't know if this is a hardware problem or a Win vista problem.  I downloaded a program to install Betrayal In Antara on vista.  I played the game fine until it was time to load disk 3 and neither of my 2 drives would read the disk.  I though at first it was a bad disk but I tried it in another machine with windows XP and that machine read the disk fine.

    I have:
    Windows Vista Home Premium
    HP Pavilion Processor:  Intel Core 2 Duo CPU 3.00 GHz
    Memory 4 Gig
    Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT
    My two DVD/CD drives are:
    ASUS DVD E616A3T
    TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-H653N 

    I think it's weird that I can read disk 1 and 2 and not disk 3 and since it is both of my drives then there is obviously something on that disk that works on my XP machine but not the Vista machine. 

    Anyone know why?

      They are the original CD's that came with the game.

        I used this program and it worked great until I ran into problems with the disk reading.
