Could it be the Sony Cd rom drive (old style with disk caddy) can't read the newer style the cd writer is using?

Hmmmmmm - just try a newer one - they're rather cheap nowadays...
All the best,

There's always the possibility that certain drive just don't read certain CDs. Optical media has always been too unreliable IMHO. I've had drives which just don't read certain brand of CDs, but others do fine etc. And when getting older, they don't get better. Also CD-RW discs might not work on some old CD-ROM drives etc... You could cross check the drives on your computers and make tests..
