cdrom doesnt read data/audio well

[efiste2]

my cdrom doesnt read data that my dvd r/rw cd r/rw has written, it reads other discs fine but anything i have burned takes ages to be read if at all and sometimes causes the PC to freeze, im not sure if its the writer as anything it records that is played away from the PC play fine (dvds,audio discs etc) i have also tried different media brands too, any help would be very very welcome

Have you tried running a cleaner through the machine. Some times the lens gets dirty, you may think it is writting well but it isnt. You can get a cleaner disk at any pc store or borrow one. Daniel
