If this is a windows 7 install, have you tried going to Windows Explorer, then right click on the drive that represents your CD drive, and see if there is an "Eject" option. Otherwise on many newer CD drives, there is a very small hole next to the eject button. To open it manually stick a paper clip into the hole right next to the eject button. There will be a little resistance because this is a manual release to open it.

SOURCE: removal of cd/dvd tray from acer aspire 5051

Look on the bottom of your laptop on the side where your cd drive is. There will be a screw that is centered with the cd drive, about 6 inches in. It should have a "lock" symbol next to it. If you take that screw out, the cd drive will be allowed to slide out then. You might need a screw driver to help pry it out though.

How do you get a stuck dvd out of the cd drive in a acer laptop?

Have you tried the tiny little hole very near the slot of your CD drive? A small straightened paperclip stuck into the hole and pressed in might push the drive open for you. Many people don't know that little hole is for that purpose.

Acer aspire cd/dvd drive not working

Most likely if you have to use a paperclip to open the door, your drive is bad and needs to be replaced. They are pretty easy to install, directions depends on if you have a desktop or laptop Aspire.

Drive issue

Hi,

The halfway opening of the CD tray is rather normal for slim versions of the CD drive as in the case  in your laptop.  Full slideout of tray is standard on the desktop versions.

Hope this be of some help/idea. Post back should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.
