Can' eject CD from CDROM

Drive is Lite-On LTR-32 CD/RW. Right click on Drive D icon and select eject but get no response from CDROM drive. Using CD as-a-floppy feature. Pressing right button on CDROM has no effect. Any help appreciated.

Restart the PC, and eject before Windows loads?

youre using either DirectCd or "InCD"....they both cause weird stuff like that to happen.

Yea with those direct burn apps if I remember corretly you have to like right click on the program in the system tray and tell it you'v finished with the disc so it will unlock the drive.

Just fyi, there is a tiny hole on all CD drives... sometimes it's on the face, sometimes it's on the rear... but that hole is for manually opening the CD tray. You straighten out a paper clip and push it in the hole and it will unlock and push open the tray.
