I have Windows XP home SP2. My CD writer is a HP model cd16b and I have
had it for 2 years without any problems.
It is currently unable to read any CD's. The drawer keeps opening and when
closed the light keeps flashing and it opens again. This is with or without
a disk. When this happens "My Computer" file stops responding and I have to
end the task in my Windows task manager. I have tried Andy MsFaddens
website for CD recordable FAQ, troubleshooting in my "help and support
centre", uninstalling and re-installing, and updating. In properties it
indicates that the device is working properly. I have noticed that when in
autoplay I change "music files" to something else it always automatically
returns to music files each time. The unit is working correctly in another
computer.
Any advice will be much appreciated.
