I can't remember exactly how it works, but there is a physical locking mechanism on the carts that is detected mechanically by the drive. Perhaps when you put the drive back together, that mechanism got stuck. Examine the carts for the locking device and you'll be able to find the interlocking mechanism in the drive. ===== ----------------- Ed Murphy [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
