That is normal from some BIOSes, they will not allow xp to bypass them.
If Nero and Record Now cannot read a disc, it is probably the player. Try reading
discs through any means -- explorer, control panel, disc info (nero), etc. Try in
safe mode also.
You can download one or both of the bootable cds below and see if you can read cds
with them. If you can, it is something in the xp install. If not, it is probably
the read laser. It could be the controller, cable, etc., but I really doubt it.
Last minute thought: Try booting from any cd from that player -- before a high level
os is loaded.
