Hi Guys,
Recently the disk drive on my G4 iBook has started playing up really badly.
When i insert a disk it starts making a very loud noise and the disk doesn't show up in the finder. I have tried various types of disk to make sure it wasn't something wrong with the disk i was using and i get the same result every time, the loud noise, i'm unable to eject the disk manually and have to wait sometimes up to 10 minutes before the drive gives up and ejects it itself.
I'm not sure why this has started happening and will be taking it to my nearest computer store soon to get it checked out.
But before i go through all this hassle has anyone got any advice just incase it's something i can sort out myself.
Kind Regards,
Louis Miller
