CD disk won't open
Jonny wrote:
"TonyB" wrote in message ... I had put a cd into my cd player and now I can't get it to open and take the cd out. I rebooted and checked my computer and even the cd icon driver is not shown. Sometimes in the past I was able to e ject the cd via the driver icon. It is possible that in my haste to put the cd in I may of put it in wrong, which is rare, but possible, and that maybe the reason why I can't open it. Does anyone have a clue to get opened or at the least listed again in windows explorer? Its possible some form of software has locked down the CD reader. To verify if this is true, reboot the PC. During the bios accounting of onboard ide devices, press the button on the CD reader to open the tray. If it fails to open, its a hardware problem. Opening by using the forced open routine with paper clip in windows proves absolutely nothing. No, it works just fine, thanks |
