Autoplay Freezing up system

T

My system Freezes hard. System freezes about the time Autoplay should
start. Meaning, the disk goes in, disk begins spin up and the mouse cursor
freezes. No system response from that point on. I have to reset system and
reboot. With the disk in drive, when system comes up it reads fine. I
eject the disk, push it back in and cycle repeats. I disabled Autoplay in
the registry and system stops freezing although autoplay never runs. With
autoplay on, I can hold the shift key down when inserting CD disk and system
is fine. However when autoplay is on, a hard freeze occurs and no error logs
are being generated nor BSOD's.

I am using an Optorite 203 Dual DVD +- Drive. DMA is set for use if
available. Drive works fine otherwise.
