cd drive on computer stuck?

[foulpole18]

My cd drive on my computer is stuck. I think that a disk is stuck and wont allow it to open. Anyone have any ideas that dont involve sledgehammers and brute force. thanks

There is a little hole that should be in the lower right hand corner of the cd drive(Otherwise somewhere on the front of the cd-rom drive).. take a paper clip and bend it straight and push it into the hole.. it should pop right open!

Thanks Lucky Norman. That worked. I guess I can put the sledgehammer away
