Possible Cause and Solution
Drive Not Resetting
In some cases, even if you restart the computer by pressing its reset button or the
Control, Alt, and Del keys simultaneously, the drive does not appear to respond. Try
turning the power switches on the drive and computer OFF, then ON. This complete
shutdown should fully reset the drive and computer.

All Commands Sent to the Drive
Result in CDR101 Error
Possible Causes and Solutions
Defective Caddy
A warped or damaged caddy can cause a CDR 101 error message. Try using another
caddy and see if this eliminates the problem. Also, be sure to use only an ‘‘industry
standard’’ caddy. This is a caddy made of plastic with a metal shutter on its bottom.
If you use another type of caddy (e.g., all plastic, but with no metal shutter on its
bottom ---- just an opening), you may experience problems.
Defective CD-ROM Disc
A fingerprint, contaminants, or deep scratches on the disc’s surface may prevent the
drive from reading data. Read Chapter 10 to learn how to clean CD-ROM discs.
You should also review the low performance symptom discussed on page 59.
