My floppy isn't letting the disk out!! - Problem Solved

Post by Sean »

Piece of crap! My stupid floppy drive isn't letting my disk out!!! I thought the button wasn't pressed in all the way. When I took off my bezel, I found that even if I put all my 150 pounds of weight into the POS, it wouldn't let it out!! WTF is with this!! I NEED THE DISK!! AARRRGG!! Anyone know what I can do? other than taking the fricking POS apart??!

Try popping the front bezel off of the drive and see if you can grab the diskette with some needle nose pliers or something.
