[QUOTE="chscag, post: 928641, member: 46727"] You can try cleaning the drive although it's not likely that will cure the problem. Have you tried to do a software eject? (Command click or right click on the CD or DVD icon image and select eject.) Also, if you're using any kind of third party software to modify keyboard shortcuts, turn it off or remove it temporarily to see if it's the cause. If the drive still refuses to eject any disk (CD, DVD, commercial, recorded, etc.) it could be defective. The only cure is to replace the drive. You don't want to run into a situation where a disk is stuck in the drive and can't be ejected even on startup. Regards. [/QUOTE]
