I doubt that that will help. Most likely is that its either bad burn, or burnt to fast or wrong mode for your cdrom. In particular I have found the Diamond multimedia 32X CDROM can't read heaps of types of CDRs and CDRWs. You may need to get him to burn it at a lower speed or to use a different brand of disk.
