windows XP not reading some CD/DVD (No Errors...)

Sep 7th, 2008

Hi,

My computers Hard disk was crashed last month then i have taken all the backup of data from computer on CD/DVD And my laptop. and replaced the hard disk and reinstall the XP but now some of the CD/DVDs are not readable by XP, i mean now some CD/DVDs show nothing in it (like blank CD/DVD) even there is data and not shows any errors..

Please let me know if there any tool that may recover the data from them there is very important data.

Thanks
