Hi, Thank you for your post! Can you copy the file on CD to the hard disk? Can you play the CD? This message usually pops up when you are trying to open a file or program that has been deleted, renamed or moved to another folder. Please try changing the drive letter of the CD drive from disk management to check the result. As this forum focuses on Windows Vista specific issues, this inquiry would best be posted to Windows 7 forum: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/w7itpro The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us.
