Hardware Problems
Hi, Its me again. I have a compact computer 5000 series and it cam with a cd rom and a philips 4801. On saturday I bought a liteon 24x10x40x. I took out the cd rom and put the liteon as master and the philips as slave. Now the liteon won't stay closed. I push the button to close it, it looks for a disc, and then it opens. If I put a disc in it will close look for a disk and then open. It seems to be malfunctioning. Is it because I have it as master? Or is it because I took out the CD ROM? Thanks for your help.

Shouldnt matter whether you have it as master or slave..My opinion is that its malfunctioning...return it...But thats my opinion and opinions are like buttholes.......everyone has one and most of them stink....

one more thing..
Was the cd rom that you took out made by compaq computer corporation??Cuz i have a compaq that came with a dvd rom and a cd-r....i tried to put the dvd in another machine and it would not work,im guessin cause it was made by compaq it will only work in a compaq....So maybe the lite on you bought just isnt compatible with your compaq....If i were you i would contact Compaq tech support and see what they say...

The strangest thing happened. After I restarted my system for like the 5th time the liteon works. My only problem now is I replaced my philips burner with my old Cd-rom and now it won't read anything. I can get it to open and close easily, but it won't read. When I installed this Rom drive I think I put it on the slave setting (It used to be master). How can I get it to work?
