GP3 game cd not read by w2k for play

[bigall 0]

Having P3-800, MBO Tyan 694x, RAM 128,, PC133, CDD Acer 48x, VDO ATI Rage 128PRO, SND SB CT4750 PCI 128 and WIN2000PRO. After install GP3 with CD which you can also install a DIRECT7X from it, the CD cannot be found when i want to play game. There is no DVD or CDwritter on computer so only one CDreader with GP3 CD loaded in. I had same problem with F1-2000 game and returned it to store but was very lucky to change for GP3 which is suppose to be compatible with W2K. There is a solution different than going to WinME? Also are Flight Simulator 2000 PRO and LINKS 2001 compatible with W2K. Having also Logitech WingMan force feedback wheel and Microsoft SideWinder FFB 2

Thanks for support, Hasbro support site: not able to write question for W2K and EASPORTS support site solution was that i should have another CD reader as a dvd and asking me to put CD into dvd for the message error.
