SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to install Microsoft Call Manager, you may be prompted to insert the program CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive, even if the Microsoft Call Manager software CD-ROM is already in the CD-ROM drive.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur if your CD-ROM drive cannot read the Call Manager CD-ROM.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, use the following methods in the order in which they are presented. After you complete each method, attempt to install Call Manager again.

Inspect the CD-ROM

Inspect the CD-ROM for visible deformation or scratches. If the disc is damaged, contact Microsoft Sales at 800-360-7561 to obtain a replacement CD-ROM. You can also order it online at the following Microsoft Web site:

NOTE: If the CD-ROM was provided with your computer, you need to contact your computer manufacturer to obtain a replacement CD-ROM.

Clean the CD-ROM

Clean the CD-ROM. To do this, use a CD-ROM cleaning kit, or gently wipe the silver side of the CD-ROM with a soft, lint-free cotton cloth. Do not use paper cloth which can scratch the plastic and leave streaks. When you clean the CD-ROM, wipe from the center of the disc outward. Do not use a circular motion.

If the issue continues to occur, clean the CD-ROM with a damp cloth or a commercial CD cleaning solution. Dry the CD-ROM thoroughly before you insert it into the CD-ROM drive.

Clean the CD-ROM Drive

If cleaning the CD-ROM does not resolve the issue, clean the CD-ROM drive using a CD-ROM drive cleaning disc. CD-ROM drive cleaning discs are available in most computer stores.
