I have a PowerBook 867MH 15" that has had two CD drives installed in it since I got it new in 2003. It has been suggested that I might be putting pressure on it when I pick it up. Both times when it went, it would only read some CD until eventually it would not read and kick them out. The only difference between the first time it went and the second is that the second time it just kept the CD in it. I would think that the CD drive needs to be changed or maybe an external drive.
