Weird problem that I have where a dvd movie (in this case) Rain Man won't eject from my computer. Won't even load. Just has the green access light consistently on my drive but computer doesn't access it. What's weirder is that it only happens with a few dvd movies. Some work fine.

I of course can shut down the computer and get the disc out but that doesn't really fix my problem. I don't have nero or any other burning suite installed except BurnAware Home. I do have ANYDVD installed but I tried to disable that before putting in the disc and it still didn't load/won't eject.

running win 7 and the drive is the asus 2014lt

thanks!

Do you notice any similarities between the disks that refuse to eject? Are they limited to a certain region or something?

You can get a new DVDRW for $23 on Newegg.
