Most CD drives have an "emergency manual" eject slot. There should be a small hole in the front of the drive. You can insert a straightened paper clip or something similar and manually open the tray.
After you get it open, check to make sure there's nothing in there that's causing it to hang up. Sometimes they just get stuck and after you manually open it, there's no more problems.
