Bashful CD-ROM Drives
I have a couple of CD-ROM drives that are so bashful that they won't stick out their tongue (tray).
I press the Eject button and the light comes on and a little "gronk", but the tray remains hidden. The same happens when I click on Eject in Properties.
One of these drives was replaced by a CD-RW writer which works fine. In the other case, I've replaced the plain CD-ROM drive by an old NEC 4-disk CD-ROM changer which works fine.
I've taken one of the drives apart and nothing is binding. I put it back in the system with the tray extended. The tray retracts as soon as power is applied and remains hidden from then on.
I've tried other drivers to no avail, or at least I think what I did resulted in a different driver. These are off-breed drives so "which driver" is a question.
Is the problem likely to be h/w or s/w? Win98SE in both cases.
Thanks for any suggestions.
