Hi All,

I am confused now as to why one of my VM CD/DVD Rom Drive is always hang in Connecting mode.

it stays greyed out in both condition VM online and VM offline (turned off)

I have installed VMware tools and it is running perfectly fine.
Change the CD-ROM device type into host and ISO datastore.
Add / Remove the CD-ROM drive again but it will always end up in (Connecting…) mode ?
I have turned off the VM and turn on numerous time but still no luck yet.

FYI, my environment is as follows:
vSphere client 4.1 (build 345043) connected to ESXi 4.1u1
The VM guest is Windows Server 2008 Enterprise 64 bit

Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
