How to remove CD/DVD when the disc tray will not open
Pressing the eject button will not open the disc tray when the computer
power is off. If the power is off, you can open the disc tray by inserting a
slender object (about 15 mm) such as a straightened paper clip into the
eject hole near the eject button.
Turn off the power before you use the eject hole. If the CD/DVD is spinning
when you open the disc tray, the CD/DVD could fly off the spindle and
cause injury.
