DVD drive help needed:(

Ok, so i installed guild wars onto my desktop, which only has 256mb of RAM, so it ran way too slow. So then i tried to install it on my laptop, which has 512mb, but when i put the disk in the DVD drive it starts to make this chck chck noice, and does absolutely nothing. I go to the my computer, and right click the DVD drive and say open, however a message pops up saying the disk is either corrupted, or i don't have the requirements to run the sofware. I know the disk is not corrupted, cus I was able to install it on my desktop, and is brand new. I THINK that i have the requirements to run it. I do have windows xp, but there could be something else i dont know of.


What is the problem, and what should i do?


Thx in advance!

Some laptops dont come with everything needed to run certain games... but its only a couple of types...

Make sure your Disc Drive is CD/DVD rom compatible since Guild Wars is CD-Rom...


Also the clicking noise it makes- makes me think of my old problem with my computer not being able to read burnt discs...
could be a lens problem if the drive is CD/DVD...

well i have played other games on the laptop, like roller coaster tycoon, but that probably hasnt been for a couple years... I also just recently(couple weeks ago) tried to rune age of mythology on it, didnt work.

are you sure its dvd, not CD?

if all else fails, download the client from the official website and install
