It's not the drive as other CDs work ok, and the CD which came with the GP2x doesn't work in another machine. Thanks for the link. I have already got that site bookmarked but I didn't know whether that CD was supposed to contain something else which I might not be able to download.
@xnopasaranx
No my unit came straight from gp2x.co.uk. If there's nothing I can't download on there then I'm not worried.
@blah
No, can see that there is something on it [edit] by looking at the disc [/edit]
Anyway, if it's all just freeware stuff that I can download anyway then I won't bother trying to get a replacement.
