[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1889249, member: 175845"] Have you tried wrapping some double-sided adhesive tape around a strip cut from a credit card or thin wooden tongue depressor, and maybe a pair of long tweezers also with protective tape wrapped around them. Otherwise it's as Charlie suggested, remove the optical drive and do a cesarean section procedure to remove the disc. It sounds from all your procedures you have done that the optical drive is actually dead, but it's rather surprising that it got pulled into the slot-oad drive in the first place if that is the case. Have you double-checked and can you see that there is a disc actually still in the slot load drive??? 😏 - Patrick ======= [/QUOTE]
