the only thing the OS has a problem with is that the data format on the CD is no mode 1 data...
instead it is mode 2, and so the OS interpret the blocks on the cdrom expecting then to have CRC and stuff,
when there's actually just plain data there...so the OS freaks out, thinking it got a bad read.
