Everytime I put a CD in my DVD unit a blue screen appears complaining about VXD read errors.

same story with my hp 8100i

Same on HP7200i Have tried fiddling with the power management on it to keep from haing it automatically spin down (a suggestion I saw at adaptec site) but that doesn't work either.

responding to myself here, just found reference to the cd_read.vxd error at http://www.arrakis-ttm.com/cdr/tomtroubleshoot.html It's mentioned that the install of the IOMEGA Recordit software for ZIP drives and is what is messing things up. I haven't tried it yet, but interestingly enough I installed that software just a short time ago. (FYI: that page I refer to has some good general info on setup of CDR/RW stuff.)

hola

I had a lot of problems with crashes, especially at cd writing time with lots of lost data. Removed my Iomega SCSI zip but forgot about the drivers. Re-naming CD_Read.VXD got rid of the crash on startup. The thing that really cleared up the problem was searching for Iomega*.* and deleting all files and directories by that name. I tried everything else, (technicians, FAQs, software updates, if I had a nickle for every time I pushed CTRL-DEL...)

I'm having the same error with Win 95 and my HP 7570 and I installed a Zip 250 a couple of months back. I'll try to Unistall Recordit and then post what happens.
