I have an old acer 661Lci when I Install service pack 2 the drive is visable but won`t read discs.

The drive is fine, if I roll back to pre service pack 2 it works fine, and is the same with all discs which I have checked in other machines

OS. XP pro
Drive. QSI CDRW/DVD SBW-242
Model. acer TravelMate 661LCi

Can anyone help! Please!!!!

Little known fact about SP2 vs the earlier versions... closed and removed the full sockets capability. Possibly this lappy uses an unusual socket to stream the data from the disk?

Why not try sp3?... I don't use M$ junk so I was hoping some of the windows "experts" would come to your rescue.
