I've used this Windows 7 disc before and it was fine, and it hasn't been touched since

When I boot to the disc it is very slow, and when it reaches the part where I should be able to sort partitions and format etc, instead it displays a screen telling me "There are no drivers for my CD/DVD drive, and to insert the CD to install them now" but I never had this problem before

Unless this gets fixed I'm stuck on Windows XP forever :/

Does anybody have any ideas how to fix this? It's the same DVD drive I used before

No it's perfect and it has worked before on the same system

I don't understand what is causing this problem :/
