using 8x4x32 Iomega zipcd cdrw, reads other CDs ok but will not read the Norton Ghost CD. Message is 'cd drive not ready...' .
I've tried several times. Is the CD too advanced for the drive?

If it is a factory pressed CD it is compatible with any drive.

It is most likely scratched or dirty and the Memorex has better error correction. Error correction ability differs greatly among readers. Surprisingly the 24X and 40X Plextors are really crappy at reading a scratched disc.

If you try cleaning it wipe from the middle out and not around in the direction of the recording.
