Drive won't eject? Won't read or write to media?

#1 Post by Supporter » Mon Mar 27, 2006 2:03 am

A little tid bit to try if any of you are having problems with your drives ejecting or it not reading or burning.

This might have been posted however if not...

DLA has been known to case these issues. Go into my computer, right click on the CD DRive and go to properties. Inside properties go to the DLA Tab, Uncheck the check box that states to use DLA on the drives. Apply.


Restart machine.

Upon restart try and eject the driver, try and burn etc. Has a good fix rate of about 60-75% for us at the moment.
