[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1472696, member: 56379"] When you restart the computer (and have about 20 seconds)…press & hold down the mouse button…and the optical drive door should open…allowing you to remove the disk. Also…if the install disk is already in the DVD drive (and you want to boot the computer from it)…why do you want to remove it…isn't the DVD drive where you want it to be (to boot from)?? If you want to boot from the DVD drive (with the install disk already in it)…just press the "c" key when you reboot the computer to boot from the DVD drive. - Nick [/QUOTE]
