STUMPER - Burner in WIN ME won't eject CDs!

Working on an IWILL KA266 Ali motherboard running 1.2 Tbird and 256meg PC1600 DDR. Under WIN ME environment, I can put a CD in, but it will not eject it back out. Reboot doesn't work either. Only way to get the CD out is shutdown and use the ol' paper clip.

Have updated device driver and also motherboard IDE drivers to no avail. Have even swapped out drives to be sure and the new drive does the same thing. This writer is secondary master on the mboard. Could this be some sort of WIN ME glitch? The drive is a Samsung 8x4x32 CD-RW. Any help would be greatly appreciated.....thanx. :(

Please don't post in multiple forums.
