Error: "CDR101: Not Ready Reading Drive X, Abort, Retry, Fail"

Situation:
While restoring an image from a CD ROM drive, Ghost displays the error message "Not ready reading drive X," where X is the letter of your CD-ROM drive.

Solution:
The image file on the CD is not readable. To verify this, go into DOS and copy the image file from the CD to the hard drive. The same error should appear. This can occur when the CD is dirty.
