I have a Toshiba DVD-ROM drive (sd-m1201) and at some point it stopped opening the drive door. When you pressed the eject button or used eject functionatily in Windows, it seemed to try to open it but it looked like it was locked or stuck.
I used a paper clip to force the drive door open through the emergency eject hole.
However, now the drive door will not stay closed. When I use eject button or push the drive door in, it will close and then re-open in about 3-5 seconds. Putting a CD in does not change anything.
Anyone has any ideas? Replacing the drive is the last thing I want to do.
