[sidcool]

hi,
i have a cd writer which about 2 years old it has been working fine but now it refuses to open. it does open but after trying a hundred times. rest it is working fine.

maybe the tray mechanism needs to get serviced. take it to the nearest service centre buddy and ask them to service and grease it well.

Yes it needs to be repaired.I had the same problem.the engineer took 100 bucks to repair that.it will be done within minutes

If u r new to H/w then do not try to open it urself. My friend did that and disturbed the allignment of tray.

BTW which model?

Is that a Samsung?
If it is, then dump it soon. I have a Samsung CD-RW & faced the same problem.
Visited the service center two times but it still dosent work properly.
