HP 7200i + media = freeze

daddy-o
I'm running Win2K final in a Dell Workstation 210. I have an HP7200i installed, with the latest ASPI drivers (as recommended here) and the latest version of Nero. Every time I insert a CDR or CDRW into the drive, Nero and my computer will freeze, until I hit the eject button, when they will return to normal operation.
