Hi Cowburn...

Can you check the follow settings - it could cause some strange behaviour by CD drives..

Right click on My Computer and select Manage
Click on Device Manager in the left window and then the + button next to IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers

Once in here, double click on Primary IDE Channeland select Advanced Settings. Make sure both Device 0 and Device 1 both have DMA if available in the Transfer Mode selected.

Also check for Secondary IDE Channel.
