If the belts inside the original Xbox's disc drive become dirty or worn, the disc drive may fail to open leading to a disc being stuck inside. To manually eject the disc tray:


  1. Ensure that the Xbox console is powered off and unplugged.
  2. Using a paper clip, insert it into the small hole above the Player 2 controller port. After applying light pressure, the disc tray should pop out enough to be pulled out completely.
