Hi everyone.
Ive got this problem with my Sony DW-Q120A DVD R/RW drive. simply put, it doesnt open. every time i press eject, the light flashes for a few seconds and then nothing happens.
i know there is a cd inside, but the drive doesnt read it. (it was working fine up until late last night)
i can see the drive in device manager and i can see it in the boot-up menu. but the tray wont open.
This isnt the first time its happened. last time it happened, my cousin happened to be visiting and she knew how to pry open the the drive using a safety pin. But, now im on my own.
I run XP sp2 and i had Alcohol 120 installed. but the dvd worked fine earlier with alcohol installed and now even after i uninstalled alcohol, the dvd drive wont open.
i did a little search here, but i couldnt find a related topic. hopefully the problem isnt too serious and one of you can help me out.
