G20 stuck DVD

Does anyone know how to remove a dvd stuck in my DVD RW drive?

Hi Iain,

If your DVD player has a pull-out drawer, then you should find a small hole on the front panel. Carefully push a small PIN or needle into the hole and it will release the locking mechanism and allow the drawer to open so that you can remove the content.

Make sure not to push too hard or you may damage the locking mechanism.

Good luck

  • Qosmio G20 - CD/DVD drive does not read disks

    Hello world

    I use the G20, which is not able to read DVD/CD other than Moose
    the DVD I burned using the same player is not able to read again when I insert it.

    Can someone help me solve the problem?
    If any other question for the brief ing the question can be posted to will answer.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    The problem looks like a compatibility problems between the CD/DVD player and the discs used
    I had this problem several times, but since using the disc TDK R questions is never appeared again.
    So I agree with Luke and recommend that you try other discs.

    In addition you must remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  • Qosmio G20 - CD/DVD drive does not burn

    Please can someone help?
    I rebuilt my qosmio g20 and the thing what it is great except my cd dvd player that plays audio and video but simply will not register.

    When the folder now, he says no. RECORDER and when I click on check for other readers of anything.
    Select record is selected. Before the reconstruction, it all worked but did not.

    I have nero has always worked well even with the sound stuff installed. So I reinstalled nero and nothing.
    I tried to delete the upper and lower entrances in regedit, which is a common difficulty that offered among various forums but nothing again.

    Sick as a parrot, so glad of any help here... Thank you

    Hello

    It's very strange
    Have you tried to reinstall the OS again?
    Try this.

    I recommend also to remove the CD/DVD drive Device Manager, then restart the laptop.
    Usually the operating system should recognize the drive of the CD/DVD device correctly and must reload the driver again.

    I see you are using Nero burning ROM. I know sometimes the BONE can be confusing upward if several burning applications are installed.
    So remove the sonic software and use only one. Nero.

    Best regards

  • Mast of Qosmio G20 * a DVD-RAM UJ-846

    OK, now I am really mad. I bought my Qosmio G20-127, almost a year and a half ago, and since then he has been three times on the repair. And all three times, it was the same thing: THE OPTICAL DRIVE.
    It always starts the same, firstly it does not read some discs, then it reads all CDs, then it will not burn them, and slowly but surely it goes to dvd as well.

    So what do I do. Every six months my Qosmio, which was not a market good model btw, must go to a repair, and the FSA here move at a glacial speed when it comes to Toshiba.

    Can what advice you give me? Can I request a replacement model, I don't know how is the same error comes over and over again? Maybe it's the incompatibility of the circuits installed toshiba (I not sure touched a thing).

    PLEEEEEASE HELP!

    Hello

    This is a very sad story boyfriend, but I don't the opinion of t would be a CD/DVD drive died after 6 months of use, again and again.
    Of course if the player is stressed all the time throughout, it is possible that the lens of the player could give place and then it s not possible to manage the CD or DVD.

    You ask for advice? Well, I'd say contacting ASP in your country and speak for this strange behavior of the CD/DVD drive.

    Sorry, but I don't see another solution if there is a hardware problem, then the device must be replaced.

    Dude good luck

  • A stuck DVD disc.

    A disc is stuck in my laptop. When I press the eject button, it makes a sound but will not eject. Any suggestions?

    There is no hole and the Dell laptop is not a drawer

    Hello Basseyboy,

    Look carefully at your CD/DVD drive and you should see a small hole. It may be near the eject button. Now straighten a paper clip and push it into the pin hole. You may need to use a bit of pressure but the clcip of paper should trigger the release and push the draw lots and the CD/DVD on.

    This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

  • Satellite P300 - how to open a stuck DVD player?

    The DVD on my Satellite P300 drive just decided that she does not want to open. I tried to use a paper clip in the small hole next to the button, but that does not work either. The LED on the drive just flashes.

    Someone at - it other ideas.

    Thank you

    Ron

    Hey Buddy,

    Normally on every CD/DVD player there is a small button of relief that you can open the player with a small paper clip even the CD/DVD isn't working or the normal eject button. If you use the emergency eject button the drive opens and you can remove the CD or DVD.

    Also, check the user manual. I found this inside information. ;)

  • Qosmio G20 CD/DVD burning is very slow at max 4 x

    I've used philips CD and DVD, but they are slow, burning DVD, but the CD only. can I use another brand of discs as TDK. I can't speed up the record either.

    Is my CARPET * A DVD-RAM UJ-845 s DAMAGED, do I need to replace? I looked on the internet and many people have the same problem with the same drive.

    Hello

    Wait you can burn DVDs but it s not possible to burn the CD?
    OK, it sounds like a hardware malfunction, but before you need to replace the device you should try to burn different CDs. Test the different manufacturers of CD s shape.

    You suggested using TDK?
    I use TDK CD and DVD and my drive burns all successfully.

    Anyway, if you be still not able to burn CDs I guess the lens can not calibrate and that's why the drive can't write to the CD.
    In this case, the disk must be replaced ;(

  • Do not start and stuck dvd

    Today my 17 "could not start for the first time, he showed as having 2% battery and exploded, so I connected the power and went to turn it on, but despite hours of trying, it continues to fail. Have you tried many suggestions how to fix online, but without success, one of them was to take off the back and if the battery is labeled do not remove to simply unplug the small rope and then re - connect but nothing works. I can hear the sound as usual, but nothing is visible, you can hear the normal sounds, but the screen remains blank. Then, I thought that I would try to insert a disc, and this has been entered, but cannot eject it. Suggestions how to run greatly appreciated.

    On the disc, try these options:

  • eject the disc from the drive USB Super

    Last night I unboxed my new USB Super drive and attached to my MacBookPro. I put in a DVD of registered film and was able to start playing. Then I ejected it by clicking on the disc icon on the desktop, because I was just testing how it connected etc...  Then, I wanted to see if he could save.

    I inserted a blank DVD and he asked me to tell him what to save, but I didn't save. Instead, he presented another option, which was to IGNORE.

    So I clicked on IGNORE. As a result, there was NO ICON ON THE DESKTOP for this drive. And the text to EJECT in menu bar is grey.

    Now I am sitting here with a new USB Super with a blank CD disk stuck in it and am totally IGNORED, I asked, but what I didn't know when I asked to ignore me.

    That's the problem. I disconnected, signed back in, and he has not yet cleared my instructions to ignore. So I can't eject the blank DVD disc.

    Where should I go from here?

    My MacBookPro is the retina, i7, 15 '' running ElCapitan, a model community 2015, I think.  I'm not on it now, but will open it to follow the suggestions for help. I'm a new converted to Apple, computing, coming from Windows, so I need the regular basic directions. Any help is appreciated.
