This may not be the problem, but an older disc may have trouble recognizing a drive with a newer or very different file system. A disc made to work with FAT32 may have trouble with NTFS, and a disc made to work with FAT16 may have trouble working with FAT32.
I don't know whether access to the files is free, but you may want to visit
http://www.bootdisk.com/
in case some of the information can point you in the right direction. Another good link may be

for tools and utilities.
Good luck.
