  1. There should be a tiny hole on the front of the CD-ROM

    Straighten out a paper clip and gently, but firmly stick it in the hole.

    This will manually eject the cd, but you will likely have to reboot after that before you can use the CD-ROM again.


  2. You CD drive must be locked when you were about to burn and now you can not eject your CD .

    You can use some softwares like http://www.cd-eject-tool.com/ to unlock it by software .

    If it couldn't help , turn off your comp and try to find a small hole on your CD drive frame. Use a thin needle and insert it into the hole . This can be used to unlock the drive mechanically and you can remove the disk afterwards

  3. Get a sturdy paperclip and straighten it out.  There is a small hole located by the eject button, that when you place the paperclip in, should eject the cd.

  4. 1.  Turn off your computer.

    2.  Straighten out a paper clip to about 2 inches.

    3.  Gently push the paper clip into tiny hole

    that is above or below your CD drawer,

    4.  and turn the little wheel inside, just enough to open the drawer a tiny bit so that you can

    5.  pull it out VERY gently.

    6.  Remove the Disk

    7.  Gently push the drive drawer back in.

    8.  Turn on your computer.
