I've been having this odd problem where my CD-RW drive dosen't eject the CD-RW I put in. It happens now and then after I write something to a new disk, eject it, then put in the next new disk. Then the drive fails to write to the disk and I can't eject the disk. I tried pushing the button on the drive to eject, the eject option when I right click on the icon in the my computer screen, but neither works, It only ejects when I go to shut down the computer, and ejects right before it turns off. Any help to fix this is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
