Get in really close...closer! Now have a good look at the front of the drive, it will have a tiny hole there on the front. Push something tiny in there..Usually a straightened paper clip or similar.this will release the door lock and you can then open the door to retrieve the disc. It's possible to continue using the drive by loading it manually like this.
