My window wont roll up!!!!

Manual windows. Ok, it rolls up about 75% of the way and then it just jams. What should i look to replace? Also, do i NEED the special tool to get the window handle off or can i use a screwdriver???

Yes you can get it off with a screwdriver, just make sure its a long, thin one. If you're despirate you can use a credit card (or similar plastci piece). Most of the binding up come from the window gear, track & moving points not having been greased/lubed in awhile. I've always trusted white lithium grease for the hard to reach areas, it sprays like WD40 but is true grease.
