Puzziling, maybe just get a new dvd drive. Would be interesting to know if when he accesses Win$ (Double Clicks MyComputer) if the system crashes or when he double clicks on the dvd drive in mycomputer would be a big indicator of the drive being bad or if it takes a long time to access the drive. All the icons on the desktop will dissapear when it crashes. Another thing Right Click on My Computer Select Manage and look at the logs for the dvd drive in question. You should see errors there if it's bad. Also like someone else said it will only auto mount on a user account and not root. If it's not any of the above get a new drive. > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos -- ~/john OpenPGP Sig:BA91F079 _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
