    HELP!! :p

    My Eject button has stopped working, obviously i still eject using the right click method, but i would rather push the button.

    Has anyone else had this problem? or does anyone know how i could fix this?

    If its the button on the drive tray then something is prob wrong with the drive, otherwise follow the directions in my sig below to get hotkeys working.

    There is on my AR21S and I assume that has the same drive! It's just below the silver rim, under the LED indicator on the front of the drive - it's really small but it's definitely there!

    Ahh yes there is a button - Shows how well i looked :p

    Ok i managed to get it working again - i had to reset some of the drivers back to the original. I havent reloaded them yet - but i will do them one by one to eliminate the problem child
