No, the actual drive is a CDRW Plextor 48X drive ide, and the CD2 which
I downloaded and burned from an iso is on a regular cd-r media burnt at
48x.

What am I doing wrong and I cant mount the drive.

Is the problem just with CDRW's? Can you mount CD-R's? Or mass
produced CDs? Some older drives (usually any slower than 16x speed)
cannot read CDRW's. The really old ones (like 4x or slower) also
cannot read CD-R's.
