[SOLVED] Optical Drive wont eject

Techie19 · 02-10-2008, 12:33 AM

My computer's DVD/CD ROM all of a sudden won't open up by me pressing the button on the outside of the tray. the only way it will open/eject is by me going into my burning software (NERO) and actually clicking on the ejct button.

What can be the cause of this?

Broken button?

Maybe a broken button.

There should be a small hole under the disc tray, put a pin in there to eject the disc if the button dont work
