Possible Solutions
Open optical drive tray and re-install the disc properly.
Push on the front of the optical drive tray until it latches. If that doesn't work,

by the operating system. When the operating system is booted from a DVD/CD,

can be changed with the Disk Management tool located at Administrative Tools -
