CD Stuck in CD Drive....

[scottish]

Any ideas how to get it out i've

Tried forcing it open (obviously dont wanna force it too much)

It opens about 2cm and i can't see nothing or get anything in the force the disk... there is no screws so i can't take it apart and remove the disk.

Its the SPD3400CC Philips model.

any ideas? also tried shading it doesn't work.

There should be a little hole next to the tray, straighten out a paper clip and push it in, should push the tray out no problems

If there is a disk blocking it the little bit doesn't work.

I know this sounds really silly but have you tried turning it off , unplugging it and re-plug and turn back on?

Does a pin in the little hole not open it up?

Set oWMP = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7")
Set colCDROMs = oWMP.cdromCollection
if colCDROMs.Count = 1 then
for i = 0 to colCDROMS.Count - 1
colCDROMs.Item(i).Eject
Next ' cdrom
end if



Put that in Notepad.
Save it as WHATEVERYOUWANT.vbs

You must have vbs!

Then find it, and right click < Open as command prompt.

Just pull the tray till it opens, no worries if it breaks you can buy a cd drive for about a tenner on eBuyer, they aren't expensive

A CD is stuck in it, it won't open if i unplug it etc

Nope it does same as normal eject button; opens it about 2cm and stticks at it.

Well its a DVD-RAM/DVD-RW and cost about 140 quid so don't really plan on trashing it

Thats a program to open my CD drive, my CD drive opens normally, the fact a CD is preventing it from opening a piece of software won't solve that

I edited my post, thats for software that won't literally move a CD in my drive to prevent it from blocking nice copy and paste though
