Hello,
I have been unable to 'Read' any CD's in the 'D' Drive on my laptop, Toshiba, using Windows Vista as an Operation System. I have a friend who has the exact same problem. What do we need to be able to listen to this CD from the laptop?

Thanks for any help!!!

This is for audio CD's only or data/program CD's also?
Can you see the CD / drive D when you click the "computer" icon? If you can see the CD double click it - does it run then?
If it does then you have turned "Auto Play" off to turn it back on Right click the drive and select "Auto Play" option - that should allow you to change the setting.

Hi, The CD contains data. It is Black's & Bouvier's Dictionaries of Law (And other stuff) Acrobate Reader Required...
The local disk D shows 5.65 GB free of 5.71 GB, but when I double clock on the D:, it does not run, rather I get the message 'This folder is empty'.

Better solution - go to START - CONTROL PANEL - under HARDWARE & SOUND select "play CDs or other Media Automatically" then select what you want to do

I tried to change the settings you suggested, but it still didn't work.

My problem has finally been resolved by talking to a rep at Toshiba, who was able to talk me through deleting the improperly installed driver, and when I shut computer down driver was properly installed. Problem resolved. Thanks!
