I've just finished building my new rig and I have a strange problem.

When I load a cd/dvd into the DVD drive it spins up, functions perfectly fine (plays/installs etc) However it will never spin down again once its finished accessing.

I believe it may be a hardware problem as it happened outside of windows when when I was trying to install windows. Also if i reboot the system the drive will still not spin down and stay at high rpm's through the whole reboot cycle until the bios freezes on the main info page :(

Not a mega problem but some what annoying! Any ideas?
 
What brand drives you guys got, what mobo etc etc.........

List your hardware and you might see some similarity's.
