I was burning a CD on i-tunes, and i let it finish and all.  Now I'm trying to eject the CD but it wont eject.
Its an HP desktop if that helps any.  Does NS know how to steer me in the right direction to getting my CD out?

have you tried rebooting yet?
try that and try to eject again.
also have you hit the eject button on the drive, or gone to my computer > D drive > right click > eject or something like that?

Yeah, I tried all of that.  But it doesn't matter cause I got it.  There is a little reset button on the disc drive and I pushed it with a pin and reset it and then I hit it with a pin and it worked.

Look closely on the front of the drive and see if there is a tiny hole on the front. If you put a pin in that hole and push fairly hard it will eject. There might be a cover on the front of the drive so it matches the case, just pop that off.

Try to find a little hole on the front of your CD drive. What you need to do is take a pin or a pen or something and push that tiny button, and it should eject for you.


Hope this helps!
