When you try to eject a CD or DVD, a message appears: – An error occurred when ejecting the DVD-RW drive, this message provides some suggestions that may help you to solve the problem. This is mainly due to a hardware problem, but can also occur for several reasons.
The reader’s letter is mentioned in the error message and can be H, E, D, etc. Before starting the troubleshooting, you must install the latest version of your CD/DVD driver.
Uninstall the CD/DVD drive from the Device Manager and check what is happening.

No luck? Here is what to do next
At this point, it is likely that something is physically wrong with the drive or another part of the computer. Here are some points to consider:
- If your hard drive is external, disconnect it and reconnect the data cable and power cord.
- Check internally that the power and data cables are properly connected.
- Restart your computer and try again.
- Replace the player. Optical scanners are relatively inexpensive – Amazon sells a lot of them for about $20.
