Q&A: How can I remove a CD from my computer’s DVD drive when it has a broken ‘Eject’ button?

Posted on January 6, 2015

cdQuestion from Angelia V.:  The button for opening the DVD drive in my Gateway FX4710 desktop PC is broken. Actually, it is completely missing. I have no idea how it got broken but I suspect a certain little 6 year old lol.
