Just noticed that the eject buton on my X51 is not working . It is working outside windows and in BIOS . Drive test in the dell utility cheks out fine. I also did install ODD_monitor setup as advised on another trend , still no success.

Hello, DELL-Milena M
I have checked the registry . None of the mentioned upper or lower filters exists on my machine
FIY, the windows install is done by me using factory supplied DVD that came with the computer
What can be the next step?

In that case you can run the driver for the optical driver. Download the driver and run it one time to uninstall it and a second time to install it, you can find the driver on the following link
