Jump to PostI don't remember if this is still so, and haven't trested it, but if a drive is burning and a request is received to open the tray, Windows will display a message telling you the drive is in use, and asking if you want to proceed with the request.

O yea and igf you must no, way back when, when a posted this. i was looking to make a burning app. I wanted the cd tray to lock when they started to burn (so they wouldnt open it while it was going). That is all.
Please dont assume i am trying to "screw" up someones computer. Its just not right
