You will need to turn off your PC, remove the cover & pull out the power cable to your CD/DVD drives.

What I & many others have done is to put a switch on the power cable so the power can be turned off to the CD/DVD drives without having to pull the cover off, you just turn the PC off & flick the switch when you want to play a starforce game, flick the switch back again when you want to use your drives

There is a tutorial here somewhere ... if you do a search you shouldn't have too much trouble locating it
