Rebooting problems

shakel · 2000-12-14 00:02:00

I recently formatted my main partition and reinstalled Win 98 on my PC everything seems to be working fine, except sometimes when I eject a cd from the dvd the machine reboots. Anybody seen this before? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ive heard of something similar. Is your dvd set as a slave to your HD?

If so try setting it as a master on the second IDE cable, preferable with nothing else on the same cable.

Some DVD drives just dont like to share
