View Full Version : Technology hates me.
My disk drive won't open and my CD is trapped in there. It won't play, either. :( (And yes, I tried hitting "eject.") </pointless post>

Take a hammer to it.

Look closely at your CD rom drive, and there SHOULD be a little pin-sized hole. Get a paper clip and straighten it out, put it in, and push until you can push really hard. It will manually eject the drive.

Not really, I just have had a LOT of shitty computers, and my grandpa builds them (shockingly enough, for a FUN factor). Crazy old bastard.

I always thought those little holes were tiny cameras that spied on me. :shifty:

Lol. I called you a kid, and I just looked at your profile, and it turns out you are older than me. :o

Sticky tape? What other kind of tape is there?
Keith, I tend to use your hammer solution for...well, everything.

HOLY OBSERVANT, BATMAN!
I checked, and decided my computer's probably too old to have something as spiffy as a...little pin-sized hole below the disk drive. I did find one on my burner drive thingy, though..yay!
I don't know why, but a few days after I made this thread the CD came out. ;/
Thanks for the help. :)
