bad cd-rom drive

[wolfen885]

I have a creative 52 cd-rom drive. Just sits and clicks,then the tray pops out. Do you think the drive is bad?

No. It's your CPU. You crushed the core, dude!

Yeah. I've owned 2 of those monsters that had the exact same problem right out of the box. The 3rd one worked fine. Good thing I bought them at Wal-Mart about a mile away. Made for a quick turn-around.

It's either some sort of new feature that creative is working on..... or the drive is mental.
