Windows 7 dvd drive tray opens when driveclicked...how to disable

Hey guys,
Here is a tech question...sometimes when I am navigating through my files, when I choose the drive, sometimes I accidently click a dvd drive...I hear 'thump' because the tray hits the atx case cd drives flap. I have to open it, let the tray finish opening, and then am able to close it. The tray hitting the flap can't be good for it, so how do I disable the cd tray from automatically opening when I click on the drive in Windows?

Cheers
TJ
 
Why don't ya just go into your BIOS and disable it. Then the only time it will go into use is when you press the load button. Matter of fact you can go in there and disable every drive except for your C drive. Their is really no reason why when ya start ya pooter up ya heve to scan and load them.
