How to Eject my CD when the CD Player seems to be locked

[Guest]

I have a home PC with WinXP Professional Service Pack 2. I put in a CD-RW
into my CD/DVD player on my PC. Since then I have not been able to eject the
CD. I do not hear the CD spinning or anything like that. I've tried pushing
the button on the cd player to eject it and it won't eject. I've tried
rebooting it and still not been able to eject it(cd drive door won't open).

I've gone to control panel, performance and maintenance, administrative
tools, computer management. Once hear I scoll to Storage, Removable Storage,
Libraries, then selected my CD player with a right click to eject it.
However, this doesn't work either. It opens a wizard and it says it's
checking for libraries and the only thing I can do is press the 'cancel'
button. It sits on this window for a very long time, 30 minutes. So, I just
cancel the operation

How can I eject my CD player(open the CD player tray door)? Please provide
me with multiple solutions.

Sincerely,

Keith

Create, and run this file

--EjectCD.VBS---
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set MyComp=objShell.NameSpace(17)
Set CD=MyComp.ParseName("E:\")
Set Context=CD.Verbs
CD.InvokeVerb "E&ject"
--end file---
if no help, use the wire from a paper clip to insert into a small hole in
the front of the CD drive to open it.

Look for a small hole on the front of the drive.
Straighten out a paper clip. and push it STRAIGHT into the hole slowly
(about 1/2 to 1 inch)
as it goes in, the cd tray should slide open enough to open it futher...
Make sure you push the paper clip into the hole and not into a LED lens!!

If the above method doesn't work, try opening my computer,
right click on the cd drive and click on EJECT.

P.S. If neither of the above methods work:
1. Take a large screwdriver, pry the "Living Daylights" out of the front of
the CD Drive.
2. Open case and take a VERY LARGE HAMMER, and pound the CD ROM drive
untill it falls cleanly out of the front panel. ( If using this method, it
is not necessary to remove cables from the drive as they will automatically
come off as the drive falls out)

Not advisable if you want to continue to use the CD drive to hold your
coffee cup.
