Default CD Drive door is automatically coming out...


Dear Friend,

I've noticed that my Combo Drive door is coming out automatically. Even if I close it, it comes out immediately. I have to close it 10 or 15 times to stop it temperorily. Is there any solution for this?

Thanks in advance.....

Ho..ho..ho...b4 tryin all those do urself a favor and check whether the area around the disc tray is clean and free from dust nd grime...if not clean it and if possible open up the drive and clean the rollers and guides of the tray...I think this prob is because some dirt is preventing the drive tray from closing correctly and hence keeps popping out often.!
