Windows 10: How do I open the CD/DVD Drive on my HP Desktop M01-F3214

I’ve been trying all day to get it open and nothing works. There’s no disks inserted, i just need a straight forward answer on how to get it open.

:)

 

how do I open the cd/dvd disk drive on the back of the HP envy all-in-one?

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



For better clarity, please let us know:

• When you say, “how do I open the cd/dvd disk drive on the back” are you not able to open the drive to enter a disk or trying to replace the drive?
  
• What is the exact model number of the HP Envy PC that you are using? To check type:
  msinfo32 in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit
  Enter.
  

If the CD/DVD drive is not getting detected on the computer, I would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the HP article
HP PCs - CD/DVD Drive Is Not Detected (Windows 10, 8).



If you are unable to burn CD/DVD using the drive, I suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the HP article

HP PCs - CD or DVD Drive Cannot Burn Discs (Windows 10, 8).



Please provide more information on the issue that you are facing to help you with the appropriate steps.

It may be that your DVD drive has a hardware failure (as was suggested in that thread).
