Re: Door stuck

its its out of warranty its a peice of piss to open up. i never can find the
right screwdriver when i want to fix things, you can open them up with a
knife usually. just dont put the screws back in tight so its easy the next
time to open back up. screw them back in with your fingers. when you have
it open its easy to see what to do, the disc has probably slipped out of
place. push it back and let the player eject it. dont try and force the tray
open or closed as it can slip out of the plastic teeth that open and close
the tray and it can be a bugger to put back in place properly, although not
impossible
