Unhappy Cant Mount Cd-Rom


Hello all. I am currently experiencing a problem with my cdrom that i have never experienced before. When I attempt to mount the device I get the follow error:
mount /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom
I have never had this problem before. I know this drive works because i swapped it into my windows box and it works fine in there. Someone please help, I just got my ATI drivers working and now my stupid cdrom doesnt work so I cant install UT. All I have to say about that is........................... " Isn't it ironic don't you think? ...... Its like rain on your wedding day" Ya well you all get the point I dont need to sing the rest of the song.
