I have a samsung 33X CD writer, and it opens at any time from start up of my PC, with out doing so. It reads any CD only after a few trials. When I put my CD in try, it tries to read but the drive openes, it is very irritative.
I know all of my frieds have the same problem those who have the SAMSUNG CD writer.
Is it a virus?, or a hardware problem?.

Sorry with that dude . But as mohit said it's an in-house Samsung problem.Try replacing the drive if it's within warranty or better still go in for Sony.

Coz mainly Samsung s***s. :lol: :lol:

I've seen this happen with Philips CD drives too - its either a cable/connector problem or a sensor problem in the CD Drive.

Try changing the cable/connectors for the drive, and if that doesnt work, contact samsung. :)

No its none of the problems thats you mentioned.

I had a similar problem recently with my creative drive that was 5 years old and the technician said that the lens had lost its capcity to read.

It was not a tray problem.

It had the exact same problem that you are having with your drive.

Go in for a Sony throw that one out.
