I recently reinstalled Windows XP on my pc.But when i insert some cd's & Dvd's in the explorer it shows cd/Dvd has been inserted.But when i Double click the icon it shows that "The disk migh be corrupted or using a unknown format".I checked this disk on my friend's pc & it was working fine.This problem not used to happen before reinstall.
