        It's the laser not being able to read the particular media.

        You'll need to:

        A) Flash new firmware (if possible);
        B) Read it on another CD player and transfer the files over via LAN;
        C) Have your friend use older style gold CD-R media, such as Kodak.

        Cheers!
