universal repair tool -- a straightened paper clip -- and poke it into the little hole on the front of the CD drive. Push hard, and the drawer will open...

When you turn the machine back on the drive will put the tray back into place.

using the drive. CDex sometimes locks my drives.
If it refuses to open after a reboot try sticking a paperclip in the little hole - that forces it to open.

Take it back and get a refund right this minute. They're the worst things on the face of creation.
Once you have a refund go get a Dell.

I would just use something thin and strong to get up under it and pry it loose when I hit the eject button.
Hope that helps :)

www.divx.com/divx and download the free codec pack (the smallest download there). On install, uncheck the "install divx player" option, but leave "install divx codecs". Then your player of choice should pick the codec up and play the file for you.
