Now it won't eject or do anything with the disk or the CD Drive. I can do everything else on my computer. How do I fix it?

Replies britishguy Posted at 4:03 am on Dec. 2, 2008 You can try turning off the computer and then turning it on again and then ejecting normally. If that doesn't work then shut the system down and look for a tiny pin-sized hole on the front of the drive near the edge of the tray. Poke a thin object like a pin or better still, a straightened out paperclip (because it's blunt) into the hole and push. you shoudl feel a lever that moves and as it goes the tray should manually eject. If you ever do this with the power on then you risk having the disk spinning as you do it and possibly damaging the drive. espresso8097 Posted at 6:43 pm on Nov. 29, 2008 Quote: from piemaster at 9:44 am on Nov. 29, 2008 There should be a pin sized hole in the front of the disk drive, insert a pin or something small to make the drive open. You can remove whatever is in it that way. Do that when the power is off, not as bad for the motors. That has happened to me, just had to restart the computer.   tennisplayerV2 Posted at 7:55 am on Nov. 29, 2008 sounds like somethings is wrong with the disk Niddan Posted at 7:47 am on Nov. 29, 2008 the elves are holding it back Googoie Posted at 7:45 am on Nov. 29, 2008 I would give it a few minutes, just to see if it will unexpectedly do something, and then restart it. DemonicRainbows Posted at 7:45 am on Nov. 29, 2008 Bust that computer open and get the disk XD piemaster Posted at 7:44 am on Nov. 29, 2008 There should be a pin sized hole in the front of the disk drive, insert a pin or something small to make the drive open.
