23673 2001-11-05 08:12:00 Well actually its a DVD but it's nothing to do with that.

Problem number 1.

I have this nice friendly message that pops up telling me an eject operation has been performed, and do I really want to eject... happens when I'm using the CD-Rom and want to eject something, not when I just go to open it any old time... problem is, it happens in the middle of multi-CD games and its really annoying having to click on OK all the time then OK to say that I have put the next CD in. Can I turn this feature off?

Problem number 2.

surfing the net... click in the addressbar and start typing a web address... get just past the www. and the CD starts spinning up, and I can't type anything more (or do anything else) for a couple of seconds while it spins up, then it just stops and I can continue. Its annoying


Running Win ME on an Athlon 750 with 256mb blah blah what else needs to be said...

Roll Twilight Zone music for that second problem.
As for the first, I have had that happen now and again, and don't have a clue what I did to fix it. Will be interested to see how it gets fixed, especially the second thing.

And anyway, stop playing games and do some work.

Regards, Robo.

23675 2001-11-06 07:15:00 LOL I've only been playing the games the last few days as I finally finished all my assignments and felt it was time to relax for a few days (couple of weeks even) before exams LOL

I thought the second problem might be something similar to the common problem of the floppydrive seeking whenver people click Open in Word or something, but this only does it when I type into the address bar, and every time...
