Cannot eject the CD from the drive slot (without tray) load

I have a Dell Insiron, which took a drive die on me and I'm now trying to reformat and reinstall Windows. The system currently has no BONES.

The problem is that the slot loading CD / DVD player has eaten my DVD and don't restore it to him.

1. start the machine

2. press on the eject button on the top of the keyboard

3 lecteur_CD whirs and clicks on and then guard spinning for about 15 seconds and then stops turning

This player does not have a shelf as other CD players, it's just a load of housing where put you the CD directly into the machine. And I can't find a paperclip hole to try to eject manually.

So now I can't reformat because I can't get my DVD out!

Thanks in advance for any advice!

The machine is a Dell Inspiron 1318.

There is still usually emergency eject hole or button - usually at the rear of the drive.  To look for, you will need to remove the drive from the system.

    Windows 7 64 bit, cannot install the driver for bluetooth devices for my Motorola Droid Razr periferical. When troubleshooting try to apply the fix, after trying, it ends with a message this problem "not set"...

    I finally found the help on my own. Download and install Windows Mobile Device Center. After installation, you'll swear that nothing has been installed, but there is a. The download says it's for Vista, but it also shows Winkdows 7 under system requirements. This is from the download I used.

    Go in Device Manager for each item under the heading Bluetooth with an asterisk, double-click it. Click the tab drivers, then put to update driver. Browse my computer..., let me pick from a list... Under manufacturer, select "Microsoft Corporation". Under model, click on "Windows Mobile-based device support", and then click Next. Click 'YES' in the driver warning window. Windows will now update the driver, and he will tell you, he did it with success!

  • Cannot install network printer on Windows 7. Detects the printer then it says cannot locate the driver. All my vista and XP machines have no problem finding drivers. It is a 32-bit 64-bit vs questions? How can I fix it?

    Cannot install network printer on Windows 7.  Detects the printer then it says cannot locate the driver.  All my vista and XP machines have no problem finding drivers. It is a 32-bit 64-bit vs questions?  How can I fix it?
    Windows Server 2008 network.  Printers have ip addresses. Install the drivers from the Print Manager.  /Terminal Server Workgroup installation.

    It's the same situation with XP.  The print driver names must match.  If you notice the name of the printer driver that uses XP is a name different from the one that is installed when you plug in the device on the Windows 7 computer.  This is just my assumption, please correct me if this isn't the case.

    The real solution is to install a 32-bit driver on the XP machine that uses the same name that the 64-bit driver and share a printer using this driver or find a 64-bit driver that uses the same name as the 32-bit driver installed on XP and install the driver on XP.

    Brian,

    Illustrated in Windows Update optional device drivers updated is best if not installed, so I recommend that you ignore.

    If you do not experience any problems with your printer, apply the old addage "if it ain't broke, don't fix it!" :-)

    If you have problems with your printer, to the web site (for example, Canon) and download the latest Windows 7 compatible driver, then install it.

    After a lot of Googling, I found that the usb device is a fingerprint reader.  remove the fingerprint reader drivers removes the error in Event Viewer.

    I see that the other members of the forum answers have similar problems, but they still have to find a solution.  is that someone in Microsoft could provide an update for a fix?

    Yes! After two years, I found a solution.  I installed a previous version of Lenovo sw fp and it fixes attention on win 7 sp1 2 t60.  I've been running for about 3 weeks and warning went on two PCs. then, download and install IN1FGP08WW1.exe.  It is fp s-o of Lenovo in UTEK and there the pilot to clear the warning.  BUT it's not as safe as the current Lenovo sw fp.  Apparently, she was abandoned when authentic bought UTEK because of this.  as I understand it, if someone has physical access to your pc they can decifer pw of windows in the registry.  This isn't a big problem for me.

  • HP LaserJet P1102w: Cannot install the driver or the printer

    I had this problem on my old PC as well.

    I plugged my printer via the USB port (a port I don't know for sure works) and nothing pops up to auto install or whatever it is. I thoguth that was weird, but I also thought that the pilot would be on the printer, so let's just go to the section of the Control Panel printer. I did it, and the printer is there, but he says that he has no driver. I tried the option to find driver, but that did not work.

    I thought maybe I just need to download it then. Came on the HP site, downloaded the installer for my printer and started running it. He gets to the part where I need my printer and plug it into the USB port. I did, but it will not register in the installation software I did. The USB port works, as I have the ability to eject the printer in the taskbar, but I can not install anything.

    Hello @Kitanya,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you encounter USB connectivity problems during the installation of your HP LaserJet Pro P1102w printer on your computer Windows 8.1. I would like to help you to solve this problem today. Now I see you tried first to install your HP Laserjet Printer simply by plugging the USB cable in order to run the HP Smart Install process. HP Smart Install is the installation program built into your printers of programming. By plugging the USB cable, if own you a CD player on your computer, the printer is supposed to be recognized as a software CD and an installation must be started. However, is there is no problem with the CD drive on the computer or the printer is blocked to be recognized correctly it can cause the HP Smart Install feature does not work correctly. That being said, when you tried to run the installation with the downloaded driver package and were prompted to plug in the USB cable, then because the printer has already been connected "prematurely" with the USB cable already recognized computer connection. Therefore, the computer won't recognize the P1102w related 'recently' if he thinks already that is.

    With that all being said, I will guide you in the faster and easier way to solve this problem. Please follow the steps below.

    Step 1: Uninstall the drivers:

    Even if the installation has not completed successfully a part of the software and drivers can have made their way onto your computer. It is important that we have a nice clean slate to work with, so please follow the steps to remove all traces of your computer printer.

    3. In the start screen, type programs and features. Click on programs and features to run
    4. Scroll through the list of population programmes and to locate the HP Laserjet.
    5. Click the HP Laserjet Printer and select uninstall
    6. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the uninstallation.

    Once the uninstall is complete, proceed to the next step.

    Step 2: Remove temporary files:

    1. Open the screen Start by clicking the Windows button on the lower left corner of your computer screen or by selecting the Windows key bottom left of your keyboard to the right of the Ctrl key
    2. In the start screen, type run. Click on Run to launch the run dialogue box.
    3. In the run box, type %temp% , and then click OK
    4. When the Temp folder opens, select Ctrl + A at the same time on your keyboard. Everything in this folder will highlight now.
    5. Select the "delete" button on your keyboard. The Temp folder contains the temporary internet files. None of the actual files or folders on your computer will be affected by deleting Temp files. A Temp file should you will automatically get the pop up to 'jump' this point.
    6. Close the Temp folder, once it is empty
    7. Right-click the recycling bin on your desktop and select empty recycling bin

    Step 3: Reinstall the drivers:

    1. Please click here to download the appropriate drivers for your printer
    2. Once the site opens click on the download button at the top left
    3. Allow the download to run
    4. Follow the steps on the screen to reinstall your printer
    5. Do not plug in your USB cable until the installation screen invites you to.

    Once the installation is complete, please test printing.

    Please reply to this message with the result of your troubleshooting. Good luck!

  • LaserJet P1006 cannot uninstall the driver to reinstall

    Cannot get Windows to recognize the P1006 8.1.  It worked fine in Windows 8.

    So when I try to uninstall the driver, I see that the driver is not listed in "Programs and features", or the printer is in "Printers" in the Panel.

    How can I uninstall the driver to reinstall if it does not appear anywhere?

    Thank you

    Rich S.

    Hi RichS_

    It seems that the print driver usb support is not fully install correctly.

    We will have this resolved yet.

    See if the printer will print a material as self-test.

    While the printer is turned on, open and close the lid quickly five times.

    It should display a page with black lines on it.

    I would like to know if it printed?

    With the printer still connected to the computer, return to Device Manager and see what it shows listed for the printer. Example, another unknown device, under universal bus controllers does show the usb printing support?

    Let me know.

    Try to enter the computer, windows, program files or program files x 86, hp, laserjet p1006 to see if it is listed. If it is not open the folder and run the full uninstall from there after disconnecting the usb cable.

    Reinstall the driver downloaded again.

    Let me know all this, so I can help you better.
