normally, there is a small hole in the front where a straightened paper clip will fit in. with the power off, insert the wire straight in until resistance is felt, then push approx. 1/4 in. more and door should release from latch. it could be thata cd is in there but not seated, causung it to lock up the door.

IS THE DRIVE POWERED?
When booting the machine, you should see some light activity in the cd unit.
If yes, then proceed as described in answer1
if not, remove cpu cover and unplug and plug again the power connector and the ide connector.
