Hey Gang,

Well, wouldn't you know it. Just as I got one problem solved, another popped up.

I was doing a full system restore to my D drive using Norton Ghost. About 90% through on my first disk I heard a loud sound, I don't know if it was a thump or what but after I heard it, my disk stopped sending info to the drive.

My CDROM wouldn't open. When I tried an emergency open with a paperclip in the hole, it opened about a quarter of an inch. It was enough for me to see that the CD wasn't on the plate.

How can I get my CDROM to open?

Sony CDU5211 CDROM.

Thanks,
Orangeman
