Take your disk drive out, take the plastic plate off the front and pull the tray out and grab your disk.

Get something really thin, say Nopic's penis, insert it into the gap between the top of the drive and wrench it open. I had to do it once when my renegade cd went kaboom.

It went kaboom??!?!?!? The problem is deadfive: its the family comp and i cant repair it like my own. But I have learned a valuable lesson; don't take my stuff out of my room to show brothers because it WILL get broken. And also i have another copy but i had to restore my computer(it pooped) soooo it uninstalled everything and I lost Renegade .About a week or so before that event i lost the case with the CD key so i cant possibly install it without cracking because i dont know where to get a new one and I WONT BU NOPICS his CD key was used.

Most, if not all CD/DVD-ROM devices have a pin sized hole to open them in a case like this. You need a fairly small pin. Just force the mechanism and it should become loose enough for you to pull out.

All you would have to do is open up the case and take out 2 screws, then slide your drive out, then take off the outside of your CDRom drive. And there you go!

Do it in the middle of the night when everyone is asleep, it's a quiet job.

Your family aren't gonna care that you're putting a pin inside the cd-eject hole on your CD-ROM. That's exactly what it was designed for (getting CD-ROM's out with no power/a stuck door.)

If you do get scolded for doing that, I suggest giving your mother or father the back of your hand, applied to the face.

Get a NO-CD from beaconpedestal or something. I think one even comes with Renguard now anyway.

Why dont you tell them whats happened, and say that you need to do whatever to repair it?

Let all your wishes be granted except one, so you will still have something to strieve for.

Better yet, if you say you're sick or something when they all leave to do a family thing and you get to stay home alone, there you go, you have ample time. Though I do like AADudes one. Works wonders on children.

Before you try to get the disk drive open, be sure to beat the shit out of your brother.
