SHAFEEQ .

irratic behaviour from CD or DVD drives are usually due to either failing hardware or faulty cabling. Open up your PC and make sure all cables are connected the right way. Apart from that, make sure that if you have two devices connected to a single cable, one is setup as Master and the other as Slave.

there is a little hole in the face of the drive (dvd cd drive) you have to use a straightend paperclip pushed into that hole with a little force then the bay will open ----it's hard on the drive though but it beats tearing it apart.
