DVD game is not recognized?

I want to install a game on DVD on my laptop, but nothing works. Although I hear that the DVD is running in the laptop but nothing comes on the screen.

I once installed and played the game, but uninstalled it again. Now I wanted to reinstall it, just does not work.

"Nothing comes on the screen"… Okay… And what about the drive? Does it recognize the DVD?

Just because no Autorun comes, that does not mean that you can't install anything.

How can I see if my drive recognizes the DVD? I do not know much about PC's.

Home → Computer

there you see all hard drives and drives, u.A. The DvD drive.

Here you can double-click and see what's inside.

Games only install themselves if they have a so-called "autorun" and if this is activated by the system. Then the installation starts automatically, but is rarely the case today.

As expected there's an Exe on the DvD for installation.

Then you seem to have a pure CD drive. Do you see because on the workstation or in the meantime on "this PC" the drive recognizes the CD?

Thank you very much. Now comes my next problem: when I double-click on "DVD-RW drive (D."), my drive / burner opens and I get the notification "insert disk"

And although my DVD is in it

If you're on the right drive, it seems like he can't read the DVD. Look, if that is dirty or similar.

If it's too scratched, that could be a reason too.
