It looks like the CD-ROM isn't able to read the TOC off the CD, which could indicate failing hardware (dead spindle motor, dead laser, etc...).

It will be hard to tell from just the sound if this is an old <8x CD-ROM though. -- _ _ _ ___ ____ ___ ______________________________________ / \/ \ | ||_ _|| _ \|___| | Jason Andresen -- jandrese@mitre.org / /\/\ \ | | | | | |/ /|_|_ | Views expressed may not reflect those /_/ \_\|_| |_| |_|\_\|___| | of the Mitre Corporation.
