open your computer and make sure the power cable to the CD drive is plugged in. Is there a green light lighting up on your drive when you press the eject button? If so, it has power

The power cable to the CD/DVD drive is kindof clear. it is the narrower one, the other one it big and is a ribbon cable.

If this dosnt work, make sure your case isnt keeping it from coming out. Pust up on the plastic above the drive if your drive is in a cave type thing like the drive in this computer is
