Cd drive noise

Recommended Posts

When I turn my PC on, with OFPR CD in CD drive, CD drive makes this humming noise. IT's NOT a regular humming noise, and I have no problem with other CDs except OFPR.

This humming noise sounds llike leafblower from long distance.

Any suggestions?

p.s. I noticed that there is a brown line at the edge of OFPR disk, and one part is not correct. seems like there a misalignment.

EDIT: not only during boot-up, but also when I pop OFPR in the drive

It's a feature, CD built in jet noise.

Not sure, I would expect this to happen when safedisk is using up your CD Drive, but you say u just boot up. It's trying to get the file/directory structure off the CD I think. Maybe something is wrong with your CD.

U should have a backup.... if possible.

Does the CD work OK?.

Does it 'Auto~Start' OK?,first time?.or does it take longer than normal to read and startup the OFP CD, than other CD's?...

I sometimes get a whineing noise while the CD drive repeatedly tries to read a damaged/scratchted CD. but if its playing OK first time it should'nt be that.

The safedisk copy protection uses hard-to-read space on the cdrom. That's why your drive acts like that. It's normal.
