Cdizzle Posted August 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 sometimes the computer "locks" cd drives so that you cant eject it. does this happen only when theres a cd in the drive? or even when there isnt? That is a good question, now that I think about it, it is only when there is a cd in it... mine wouldnt eject and i just restarted my pc and it worked That is the only time I can get it to eject when it gets stuck... Is when I restart... Quote Damn Thiefs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MegaloManiac Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 lmao...just make sure you do it with the computer OFF, lol meh ive done it with the computer on. i could care less if my drive breaks. its only like a $50 drive, wont break the bank getting a new one lol. also i usually create images of all my cds/dvds so i dont waste time using the drive, just run it off an image drive faster. but thats a different story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 http://www.cd-eject-tool.com/downloads/cd-eject-tool-2.9.exe try installing that, and the next time it locks up on you, go into your taskbar trash for your drive, right click > preferences > click on your drives tab up top > and see if the "lock the drive's door" box is checked. if it is, just uncheck it and eject.
