what dvd drive have you got? It could be that the games are burnt on dual layer discs and need a drive that can read them. That happened to me, I had to upgrade.

Not without circumventing the DRM, which is a major no-no to discuss here on Gamespot. ;) Might be a dual-layer thing, or simply a scratched up disk. Does the game disk work in other computers?
