I have a DVD drive that wont open the tray when the button is pushed. Since I need one for a PC I' m putting together I want to know:
What's wrong with the damn thing?
the tray can be opened (and goes in and out OK) with a paper clip. So mechanically it seems un-stuck at least.
Is it worth it to fix it?
Sure I know I can get a new one if I wait for $25 dollars but it could be something I can fix if I can find the problem -- and I'm a cheap bastard.
Does anyone have any idea's how to fix it/what to look for?
At this point it's trash so even slightly crazy things are worth trying.
