Why does your computer restart when you insert a CD in the CD-ROM drive?

Your CD that you're using isn't supporting your operating system most likely. If your PC restarts every time you put a CD in cd-rom then its the problem of your power supply. I had it too. What I did was I removed the connection of the cooling fan (remember not the power supply fan, what the heck -- you can't do it anyways). Then try putting a CD in it. This is because your power supply is of less voltage. Whenever your CD-Rom tries to read a CD it overloads or in short cuts off the power supply. Try doing it or else buy a better power supply. It would definitely solve your problem.

How do you remove CD drive from dell inspiron 2200?
Flip the laptop over so that the rubber feet are facing up. Remove the screw in the center of the laptop with the picture of a lock near it. This is the only thing keeping the cdrom drive from sliding out of the laptop. If it doesn't come out easily, you may need to power up the laptop, open up the cdrom tray, power off the laptop (while the cdrom tray is still open) then repeat procedure above - however, you'll now have the cdrom tray to use as a handle to pull out the entire cdrom drive.
