Hello Hong,
Since you don't say otherwise, let's rule out the obvious. Is it possible that
the problematic CDs were created in your original (faulty) drive and the Ubuntu
CD wasn't?
Try burning an ISO again on quality CD media in your new drive and check it
boots ok, then test disc in another PC. Repeat, but with a manufactured
(silver) bootable CD. This should determine whether your new drive is faulty or
not.
