    Chris-

     

    I was having the same exact problem with my I9200 tonight too...  I found in the message boards that it's due to Sonic DLA.  I didn't uninstall it, but went to "my computer" and right clicked on the DVD drive and unselected the "use with DLA" option.  That unlocked my drive & I was able to continue installing

    When you go to My Computer> right click on CD ROM drive> select Eject, the CD drive won't open? You might, just for emergence, use a paper clip or small pin to stick in the small hole by the eject button on the drive to open it.
