CD Rom problem

[kovas]

I was intalling some software, put in the cd, it was installing just fine until for some reason the cd rom ejected without the cd. I got the error saying "Error reading from Cd" I aborted the installation and rebooted the pc. The cd was left inside. I tried to access the cd but it kept saying the device is not accessable. I put in another cd and tried it and it works just fine. The problem is that I need to install the software that was on that cd or atleast to remove the cd. Does anyone have any suggestions? I sure hope i wont have to take the pc apart and remove it manually.

I'm unclear how I put in another cd and tried it if you can't remove the one that's in there? It sounds like you have a defective cd.
