Hello Chris.

I replied to your answer, but I guess it went to your email vs the group -
sorry 'bout that.

I run Win 98 SE, use Adaptec Easy CD creator 4.0, wiht TDK blaks. The drive
is internal, located as the secondary master (a Creative DVD player is
secondary slave and I have 7 GB HD as my primary slave).

Everything was working fine. Now the drive can be seen my windows but
refuses to 'do' anything but flicker it's light when accessed. Dos doesn't
work either. This is a fairly new drive (< 6 months old and only used to
burn < 20 cds).

I can force the tray out using the paper clip routine. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Larry
