More Information

Just to clarify, their are numerous drives, all from brand new (a couple week old) HP DC7700s, and the DVD Rom/CD RW drives are spontaneously opening on thier own.

These computers all came in on the same shipment, and 5 of the 15 are opening on their own. Otherwise, the drives work fine, no problem playing DVD's or CD, and no problem burning CD's.

The systems have windows 2000 with a corporate image on them, but some of the computers are unaffected.

I don't know if it is a bad batch of drives in these guys, or something.

Anyone have any ideas? Known issue? Anyone else have this happen?
