HDL won't read discs....help needed..

Can ne1 give me an idea why when I load up HDL and put in a disc, I can hear the disc spinning (it's not loud or anything, I can just hear it) but when I click install, it just says "reading disc" and sits there...it never jumps over to the "keyboard" screen (where you name the game). Now if I just boot the system up normal, it loads the game right away... no lag or anything.... WTF is up wit that?

What version of HDL are you using?

The newest version with all the patches for all the latest "hacks" (DVD-9, Gradius V....etc..).

Are you sure you patched it right? Sometimes HDL freezing can be the result of improper patching. Also what method are you using? Are you booting HDL off the memory card or off a disk?

Yes, it's patched correctly, it used to work just fine but now it spins the disc, but just won't kick over to the keyboard. I've also tried unpatched elfs and they do the same thing. I run it off the mem card.
