All DVD-ROM drives are also CD-ROM drives by default but not all CD- ROM drives are DVD-ROM drives; meaning a DVD-ROM drive can read everything a CD-ROM drive can, but the latter can't read DVD media. But if u are NOT even aware that THERE indeed ARE physical differences between DVD-ROM and CD-ROM drives then this is not really the forum for u; there are others out there w/ more on the matter, technically and otherwise.
