Restart your computer and try again, if same problem, unhook your cd drive.

use the pin method carefully. As suggested above. If the method does not work, take out your drive and carefully pry it open. I had to do it once and though it was worrying cause i thought I would break it, It worked out just fine.

There is no problem with the pin method ever. Just take a pin , put it into the hole , giv a little pressure , and the tray will come out. Hav done it 100 times on my old PC. Dsnt affect the lens at all :)
