is it definetly a CD/RW compatiable headunit? if it isnt then its been known for the lasers to no longer play them after a period of use because the laser is actually put under a much larger workload when playing copies....dunno how or why but if it aint compatiable from the box then it will eventually refuse to play them!

if it is compatiable then potentially u have damaged the laser or sumhow knocked it out of sync.....hard to believe i know but anythings possible!
