Ok, All was great (sort of)
I had my Ata 100 IBM Hard Disk and my Lite-On 24102B on the same IDE Channel as master / slave (I know it was dumb)
So then I read that putting the CD Rom on the same IDE can slower performance down etc, so I put my CDRW to the 2nd IDE Channel as the master (only have 1 hard disk and CDRW anyway)
First shot, it wouldn't boot up - I forgot to switch the jumper on the CD-RW
Second Shot - It wouldn't boot up - DAMNIT
So I reset the CMOS Bios and it booted up, but then the unthinkable! The CD-RW decides to open the tray on its own!
Gadzooks! and it won't close!
So I hunt down Paul's Abit KR7A faq page and see there is a known problem of random ejects (My PSU is 431 watt enermax)
So I download the firmware thats supposed to fix it, and it did nothing
I'm running win XP, but can anyone help me
I tried to set the CD-RW back ont he same IDE as my computer and then update the firmware from the same IDE but the prob still persists
