I put this on the newbie forum


my computer (a dell) would recognize the drive but I wasn't able to do anything with the drive. If a CD or DVD was in the drive the computer would tell me that there was nothing in the drive. The button on the drive wouldn't work to open the door to the drive and the there was no way I could open the drive except by putting a paper clip in the little hole just below the tray that come out to open the drive so I could get the disk back.
Does anybody out there know anything about this problem?

i use DVD Shrink I put a DVD movie in the DVD drive. I then clicked on open disk on DVD Shrink. After that a meesage popped up saying that the region needs to be set. It gave me the only choice of region 1 ( the USA). All the other regions were grayed out. After I clicked on "okay" DVD Shrink said it could not read the disc. So then I went to go eject the disc, by pressing the eject button on the side of the DVD drive, but it would not eject the disk. I noticed that the green light on the drive was on and staying lite. In the owner's manual this means that the drive it busy.
Since this is a replacement burner from sony, I am not sure if I can return it. The first one stopped working it was not being read by my computer
I have already tried turning off the drive and disconnecting the USB. Also, unplugging the power cord and the USB from the drive for ten secondsand then reconnecting. I do not keep it connected to my computer when I am not using it per instructions from sony. I noticed that some one else had this problem a while back but I am not aware if the advise given helped them. It did not solve my issue
Thank you
