Well, I put this in the video game forum so as many eyes could see it as possible, but feel free to move, it's just I'm low on time and need some advice.

Alright, for some reason, I cannot get the front loading tray of my Sega CD Ver.1 to open, it powers up fine, and I can hear things moving, but it won't eject the drive. Anyone have any suggestions?

I beleive you have to press a button on the controller. My tray loader is a in a box, and I use my top loader. Can't remember what controller button. C?

I've resetted it a lot of times, and that doesn't do anything. I've held down that reset button for a long time a few times. No go.

Well, I don't understand why the sys 1 would have something to do with the ejection of the drive, but I can try obviously.

I remember Drexel923 having a thread about this, but he hasn't gotten my pm yet.

Update:

Alright, I might have this figured out, but it seems there is one part that is broken, but repairable near the actually lense/moving thing. Also, I have this loose piece, that looks like a T, but the bottom is like a cylinder, anyone know where this goes? Also, it seems like the disc is trying to be spun, but it, just can't fully do it. It's strange.

Anyways, also, anyone have any extra SCD Ver1 parts lying around?
