Mine does exactly the same, took the first one back, got the second one home, a day passed and it was doing the same, ive updated my bios and all the drivers, the question is why it works sometimes and not others on mine, and the drive makes some wierd sounds sometimes too, Mine seems to read drv rom discs at the minute , but I really dont have a clue whats wrong with the thing what version of windows are you running, I've got win 95, its strange that it worked fine when I first installed it.
