CD spinup problems

Recommended Posts

Hiya all

 

I've been having a real shitty problem with XP. Everytime I put a CD in my drive, it just spins and spins for ages. I have to eject it and close the draw, then it works fine. This used to happen sometimes on 2k, but it would BSOD if I'd open the door. I've tried a few different drive, but it does it to them all. Seems to be on IDE CD-Roms only though. Tried disabling Autoplay, but still no go

 

Any suggestions greatly appreciated

I used to have the same problem under NT4.

It happened when I installed the AOpen bus mastering drivers rather than just using the MS ones.

 

Hope this is of some help.

I've seen this once before, on a similar system.

 

Never did figure out what caused it -- just moved to a SCSI Cd drive. Maybe it's a power thing? There is an awful lot of stuff in that computer... The other possibility (slim) is that the IDE drives you are trying do not support multisession disks, and all of the disks you tried are multisession (unlikely).
