hey guys

my dvd rom has the most popular problem (IMO) CD/DVD roms have : they don't open when you press eject button for first tries. but if a CD is in them they open normally.

Can i fix this problem by myself ? or i have to bring it somewhere to fix ?

Your not being alittle quick on the draw are you. I have had a few drives in the past that if the bay was empty and you hit the eject button it would take 4 or 5 seconds to open.

It is philips DVD drive.

I have it for 1 year. I've seen this problem almost in every CD/DVD rom that has work in a while. Thought it could have an easy fix. maybe a broken gear or something.
 
This is really weird. It could be a broken gear but how come it opens when there is CD in it. I had some problems with Creative CD ROM long back and I got rid of it.
