I've just installed a couple of Creative Graphics Hoem CD Packs, which
provides a Soundblaster 16, speakers, microphone and 4x IDE CD ROM drive.

One went fine, on the other, the CD ejcts its tray soon into the boot
processes and won't keep its door closed regardless. Swapping it for the
other drive in the two packs solved the problem, and from outward appearances
the two drives are set up the same (jumpered the same and there's only one)

I take it there's a fault with the drive, but before returning it, I thought
I'd ask if there might be a minor internal setting which can be altered if
the case of the drive is removed.

Please let me know ASAP if anyone has an explanation for this determined
tray ejection behaviour!

Many thanks,
