the front of it broke off my computer this morning so now the butten to open it is off it, and i can't figure out how to open it now, any one know how to open it now? should i use a paperclip or something to try to press the tiny butten to open it or something
if doing through the OS doesn't work, shut down the computer and look at the front of the drive. You should see a spot you can slide something like a bent out paper clip into and it will cause the CD drive to pop out just a bit so hopefully you can get a hold on it.
There are several ways to do this, but the easiest way is to just to go to Computer by pressing "Windows Logo Key+E" and then double clicking on your CD Drive, good luck.
well... gotta put my advice down eh? haha I meant to poke the little button with a pencil to open it.
Use a screw driver to get the drive out, a pencil may not help at all.
computer or my computer - right click the drive - select eject.
yeah try like a pencil or something.
