I have a Sony CD-RW. I came home yesterday and installed a 56k modem

Restarted and it will not stay closed. I hear it start to spin and spit out the tray.. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it.. same crap..

Should I tear it down and see if anything is inside? Try a new PCI slot? or is it just screwed ?



Thanks,

Clint S.

I have an iomega that does that - started when i moved it into another box - never did figure it out - just unplugged it - let us know if you figure it out

I have an old LiteOn that started doing the same thing for a client.. It's sitting on the shelf collecting dust now..

be a riot to put all these babies in one tower case and watch them open and close, open and close

*drive 1 opens, then drive 2, and so on* lol..

hum, WD40 and DuctTape are a geeks best friends.

Then there is also a Sledgehammer, in cases such as this, where WD40 and Ducttape wont work

Sounds like a good sacrifice to the hardware gods at PCALAN 2k4

Last night, the wife came home and said "oh you fixed it?" I looked and it was in.. doh.. wft now..

So i put a cd in and My Computer crashes when I try to play one..

So I restart, and BAM! out she pops again

So where can I send it and we can stick all these roms in one case and play some Beethoven while videoing it?

seems like somebody had pallets full of old tower cases around here not too long ago....like the 2k4 lan idea

I had a bunch of AT cases laying around.. 2-3bay but I have thrown away most of them. But I will be taking about 5-6 old 286-486 class machines to PCA2K4 for sacrifice to the gods. But, I may also trade out parts to be destroyed for bawls and other stuff.. he he.. I'm gonna have my truck bed full of schtuff..
