Ok

[rhinerc]

Ok so I burn for a living. Yesterday morning I noticed that my dvd-rom tray which is on my :d drive was open. I closed it, the green light flickers and it opens. So I closed it again, same thing, it closes for two seconds and opens again. Over and Over and Over. It won't stay shut

Now several months ago I remeber I had the same problem, I figured my kids did something and I wasn't using it so I said no big deal, but without me remeber the events around it, I closed it one day and it stay closed. Now here's the catch. When I had this problem a few months ago it was my cd rom then because it was installed on the :d drive.

When my IT guy came out a few weeks ago, he switched the dvd rom to :d drive and installed the dvd burner in :e drive. So I am wondering why I am having this problem with the :d drive.

I tried troubleshooting with windows but to no avail. Does anyone have any suggestions. Its kind of urgent.

DVD tray keeps opening:

One solution is updating your dvd burner's drivers. Another would be to remove the drive and clean the dust bunnies out of it with short bursts of compressed air. Further, you may swap out the drive board for a couple of bucks. Since you need to get it working in a hurry, I would try the driver update first and then move to the cleaning and finally taking it to a shop. Additionally, having a backup burner might be a good idea. Get one for $20 or a bit more.
