the drive shows up in device manager and will open some disks with pictures
on them or music cd's and even play some dvds but if I put a game cd in the
drive just spins eventually will show on my computer what disk is in there
but will not install or run the game. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the
drive and still does not work. in device manager under the general tab
status says working properly but that windows did not start a related device
driver to click details to learn more. deatails shows
C:\windows\system32\drivers\cdrom.sys and
C:\windows\system32\drivers\gearaspiwdm.sys with the gear as not checked or
started.
 
If I take a drive from another computer and put it in and install the game it
works fine with that drive and the games or other programs that do not work
