Sims 3 detects on 1 computer, but not the other.

[BossCityBoy318]

When I put the CD in the DVD-ROM drive, it doesn't detect it at all. I went to My Computer to see if "The Sims 3" was in the driver I put the CD in, but nothing. Doesn't detect it at all. After that I put in Roller Coaster Tycoon to see if it was just my driver, but it detected the CD right off. I then took the Sims 3 CD to my other computer to see if the CD was the problem. When I put it in the drive, it came right up. What could be the problem? Its not my driver or the CD...I just don't know what to do now. Any suggestions would be great. I don't know if you need any info or not, so here's some info.

HP DVD Writer 640c

Have you tried this FixIT from Microsoft?

Yeah tried that, the auto repair thing isn't for my OS it says, and the manual fix doesn't have the right things in the registry to fix it, and says I need to talk to Microsoft customer support =x
