After I replaced a CD device with a Samsung CD-R/RW SW-252F, it
spins fast for at least a full minute on every system startup.
This is annoying and I'd like to stop that behavior. Any clues
on how?

What if you don't have a CD-ROM in the drive at startup? And once you are at the desktop and the system has settled down put a data only CD-ROM in (one that doesn't start automatically). Does the same behavior continue for a minute or longer?

It doesn't happen when there's no CD in the drive at startup and
ine is put in later (either kind - music or data). I'll see if
there are firmware updates for it and try them.
I was kind of wondering if there was a registry setting for the
spin up at startup. But I'll try the firmware update.
Thanks,
Rick
