why did you want to open it?

I did the same thing. Dunted the CD tray by accident.

I just pushed it back in then ejected it. It has worked fine since. Been months now, no bother.

Good luck, hope you get it fixed.

It looks like the right side has just jumped the track , now all I have to do is get it back because I can't get the end of the tray back on with inside the drive....

I tried using a pin and a button (I coudn't find a safty pin) then I tried to pull it out and it was the same as before...
Is there a trick to doing it?

Hit it with a hammer!

Ok, i managed to bump into my DVD-tray once, and it would not close. i simply used force to get it back in position. it works fine now.

anothertime somehow a DVD fell out of position, it got stuck. the tray would only half open. very strange! to get it out, i took the drive out of the computer case, and shook it until the disk came out and dropped on the floor. the DVD still works! (it was the movie Stalingrad. top german quality!

)
