Shut down, re-boot and as it starts to load, hit the button on the drive door.

yes. THere is a little hole on the face of almost every cd/dvd ROM drive.  use a straightened paper clip and push the straight paper clip in there.  Ti should pop the drive open about 1/2 inch.  Pull the drive open carefully.

Stick a paper clip in the tiny hole under the tray, that's the manual release.

I didn't think that the paper clip trick needed explaining (sorry I wasn't as specific).

Do what those below my origional post said.
