XP locks up when blank disc is inserted in CD or DVD drive.

XP locks up when blank disc is inserted in CD or DVD drive.

Postby Spazmogen on Thu Aug 19, 2004 10:46 am

Anyone have a clue as to why this is locking up XP?

It occasionally locks up when a normal cd is inserted as well (music or
data).

P3 1ghz
XP Home (SP2)
640mb ram PC133
160gb WD SE with 8mb cache

ASPI (from Force ASPI 1.7)
Nero 6
Alcohol 120%
Iomega Hotburn Pro

Nothing is overclocked. Everything is running spec.

I was having this trouble before the LOP spyware trouble, and it's still going on AFTER the clean install of XP.

It doesn't lock up when a commercially made DVD is inserted. But when I insert a blank DVD, it locks up. 1 short beep and I have to reboot. Everything freezes before the beep.

This is occurring with optical drives.

Lite On 52x24x52 & NEC ND-1100a DVD+RW.

Auto Run is turned on for both drives.

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Hmm, do you have any software for Virtual drives installed?

Why did you install ASPI? :-s

I just disabled autoplay on both physical optical drives (for all types of events) and it didn't lock up (only the 1st time I've tried).

Yeah, I've got 3 virtual drives from Alcohol 120%.

ASPI: Some of the older software like ASPI installed.


Smart Ripper & DVD Decryptor like it (DVD Decrytor you can select it or other variants).

I was just messing with it again (auto play DISABLED) and I can't get it to lock up on me.


Autoplay=BAD. :evil:

For months I've been rebooting everytime so I can burn a disc.

I'm a loser.
