I’ve searched so many resources but can’t resolve this problem with an optical drive in a desktop computer with Windows XP installed on it that developed.
When there is no disk-either CD or DVD in this drive, it opens and closes normally-but put a disk in-then it will close but when you push the button to eject, it starts to open partially then closes quickly. The result is that the cd or dvd disk cannot be removed and I have to mechanically remove the disk through use of a straightened paper clip-which is sure not the ideal way to have to get the disk out!
Desperate for any input. Thanks! -CK
