Toshiba Laptop's CD tray doesn't stay closed
On a older Toshiba Laptop, the CD tray won't stay closed. It is open a inch. When I try to push it closed, it just springs open again. There is no 'click' when it normally would ;latch. This just started to happen out of the blue.
There was and is no disc in the tray when it unlatched by itself, nor was it banged or dropped. This is also when the Laptop is on ot off.
Any ideas? BTW, that release button has no affect.Copyright protection & Intellectual property my ass. All you elitists want is more money & power. Enough is enough!

Well one can only assume the little catch has broken from general use...... You would have to use a little 'ingenuity' and come up with a make-shift method of keeping it closed. (Better than paying for a new drive). Or you could open it up and if the catch is still in there (I doubt it though) glue it back on.

I assume this "catch" is at the inner end of the tray? I see no where around the 'face' of the tray any 'catch' would or could be located.
