Why wont my computer play any discs?

I got 2 videos of my volleyball team. I watched them on my tv and they worked great but whenever i insert them i click on my computer then cd drive and it shows i havent inserted anything. I inserted both and they did the same thing. Earlier in the season it also happened with 2 other videos i had. Am i doing something wrong?

oh and when i insert them my cursor shows a dvd and then an hourglass.

    Do you have a CD drive or a DVD drive? If you have a CD drive, your DVDs will *not* play on your computer.

    The cursor thing sounds like your computer is trying to auto-run the disc, and failing. Do you have DVD player software on your computer?

    Hope this helps!
