    I use the same CD-ROM on both CD drives ( CD-ROM and CD-RW ) on the same
    machine and I don't have problems with them on Win2K. I can browse the cd
    with both drives.
    but I just can browse my cd with CD-ROM on linux. When I try it with CD-RW ,
    my system completely freezes and I just can push on reset button.

    So, I just can say, CD-ROM is not broken and I don't think there is
    something really strange about that
    CD-RW drive.
