you probably need a codec pack or a single codec. Have you got DivX?

Sorry I can't give any more help, but its hard with the information given. :)

Also, if you have a needle or pen then you can push a tiny button in a hole on the front of the drive that'll manually open it.

That's what I'd do until a better solution is found.

Use the manual eject to get the CD out. Try re-installing the drivers for the CD drive, I suppose.

I figured it out. When I rebooted sometimes the cd drive doesn't verify or something, so I just watch it the whole way to make sure. Thanks for the help!
