Not necessarily, I have the same problem quite often. I am, however,
using 2 cd drives and I'm going to try out a suggestion of a previous
email, removing one of the drives.  I'll report the results if anyone's
interested; just send me an email (to my address to keep list clutter
down) if many want to know, i'll post to list, if few, i'll respond off
list.
