DVD/CD drive recognize there is a disc, but does not work automatically. I can't install the program normally when I run the setup.exe for the game. When I try to run the program with the CD in, I get a message "Please insert the right CD-ROM, select OK and restart the application.

Why can I install the program and access the drive to use the files it contains, but then not use the disk?

Hello
 

This problem may occur if one of the following conditions is true:
a. you do not use the game disc to start the program.
b. the CD player is not compatible with the program.
c. using a copy of the program CD.
d. you are not connected to the computer as an administrator.
e. the programs interfere with the start of the game which is running but is invisible to you.
f. the CD-ROM drive uses out-of-date drivers.
 
 
I would ask you to try the methods listed in the article below:
Error message or the game stops responding on the "Loading" screen when you start a Microsoft game: "insert the right CD.
