So I've got myself a Dell Inspiron 9100, figuring it could play some games, and I received Far Cry from a friend for my birthday. So, I go to install it, and I can get through the first of five CDs fine, but when it tells me to switch to the second, I put it in, and my drive proceeds to make these weird clicking and whirring noises.

My drive works for everything else, except for my Madden NFL 2004 CDs, same problem, but I wasn't as concerned as I am now. My comp just doesn't like some CDs I guess... any ideas? I hope they don't get too technical, I skipped most of my computer classes, hehe.

Thanks for any information.
