data cd being read as audio

I am trying to run an educational cd that has data and audio on it. The drive thinks that I want to listen to an audio cd, and brings up the little Explorer cd player thing, of which there is nothing on but a message that says please insert a cd, no data available. Data cd's with no audio in them work fine.
