Hopefully someone can help me here ....

I recently bought a 2nd hand Creative Encore kit (Dxr2) containing the
2240E DVD drive. Plugged it into my system and it locked up before
reaching windows. No issues with the Dxr2 card. The other CD drive in my
system is a BCE621E CD-RW.

I tried disconnecting the CDRW no joy, tried switching IDE channels no
joy. Tried a reload of windows 98se with no joy. Tried uninstalling all
CD devices whilst in safe mode then reboot, no joy. Finally tried the
DVD in my sons system and it worked no problem.

I then tried to install my sons CD drive (x6 Teac) in to my own system
and run into the same problem. This drive was actually fitted to my own
before I went for the CD-RW a few months back.

So the issue appears to be related to the fact that I can run with the
CDRW but not any other std IDE CD drive and something happened when I
switched to the CD-RW ????

Help !!!!

Rgds,
-Murray
