Has anyone else had a "bad" CD lock up there entire system to the point you
have to pull the power cord ?



TWICE today I've had this happen. I checking all the unlabeled CD's I have
laying around - you know the "I'll label that one in a minute" ones.



I stick one in and it reads fine. Pop it our and try another one and WHAM
the system (XP Pro with 2G of RAM !) is locked up and it stays that way for
10-15 minutes before I pull the plug.



How the HECK does MS allows a freakin' CD drive to suck up memory/resources
to the point nothing works ? I've seen this on other PC's too. WHAT a bunch
of crap.



OK done venting now :-) But I still don't understand how this can happen.
