    I can't take it out! Although window 2k pro still runs. Dell gx 110 733mhz p3.

    Note: there is no hole to push the disk out.

    You might need to take the floppy drive right out of the computer to work on it.

    Recently a floppy disk got jammed in the Dell P4 I use at work. The plastic cover separated on the disk and was not ejecting. I used a screwdriver and needle nose pliers to extract it.

    If it has a "false front" panel over the floppy drive bay, the eject button may not be getting pressed in far enough. Check that the panels are connected securely.
