| "reader" on cd rw won't disengage-so it won't eject
I have taken it apart and it is not an eject prob - why is this happening and what can fix it???

Sorry-- It is a Sony CD-R/RW Drive Model#CRX140E. If there is no disk in the drive it wil open fine, but once the "reader" (not sure of tech term for this) engages it stays engaged.

i had the same problem with a regular cd drive before. never could fix it. this is purely a guess, but maybe just maybe you could try reinstalling the drivers. although i dont know, it is probably not a hardware problem i would think. good luck!

btw, welcome to techimo!

It says no drivers are loaded or required?? Could this be true? | |

Here is a link to a cdr forum that I have, they helped me before but it was a software problem. Maybe they can help you. All you can do is ask. http://www.cdrinfo.com/forum/default.asp
Kind of a TECHIMO for just cdr stuff. | |
