Yeah... I posted about 5 minutes ago, now I figured out a more specific source to the problem. When the CD-Drive is open, my computer runs fine. But immeadiately when it closes, the computer crashed and goes into an auto-reboot cycle until it's opened again. Any advice?

1-Try checking on the 40-pin cable if it is loose.
2-New CD device
