48975	2002-05-15 06:42:00	Hi I have a problem, sometimes u put a CD in the drive and the computer doesn't read it, u click on 'D:\' (in mY computer) and it says: D:\ is not accessible, The device is not ready. It doesn't always do this, but when it does, u have to restart the computer to get it working (and sometimes it still doesn't worK) Anyone? Cheers	Guest (0)

Keep an eye on the led light on the front of the CD drive and don't click the file until the light has stopped flashing and is steady. Cleaning the laser lense with a cleaner disk (available at DSE) might also help as others have already suggested. Cheers Billy 8-{)	Guest (0)
