Hi,
Please help me in this problem:
- when i use Windows Explorer to browse a CD [ drive D:\ ] and manually
eject the CD while one of the CD folders is still opened in Windows Explorer,
the explorer window hangs (the 'Busy' icon) and never recovers.

This didn't happen when using another notebook and with XP Pro SP1; in that
case, when ejecting the CD while browsing it in Windows Explorer, the
explorer automatically jumps to the next available folder from My Computer,
e.g., the Control Panel.

Is there any setting to solve this?
Or is it related with type of the drive?

Thanks!

Radu
