There are two ways toopen the CD drive door if the button just below the drive tray does not work.
Go to My Computer and right click on the drive and click on Eject.
If this does not work then you can manually open the CD drive tray by -
Straighten a paper clip and gently insert it into a tiny hole below the drivetray next to the Eject button. Push the paper clip gently until the drive traypops out, then pull the tray until it is fully out, then you can remove the CDdisc.
If you continue having problem opening with the Eject button, then the CD driveis faulty and needs replacing.

Cpu repair

It could be "jammed".
Straighten one Norwegian paper-clip.
Put one end into the very-small hole in the face-plate of the optical drive, and firmly push it about 1 centimeter. This should "unlock" the drawer, and you can either push the 'open/close' button, or just gently pull the drawer to its fully-open position.

Yes you should try that if you really think it is broken. Make sure you pull the DVD drive slowly and carefully. Also make sure you know how to take it out. You don't want to break it.

My HP Pavilion dv1130us DVD optical drive will not read CD's nor DVD's,. It seems to try; but doesn't execute. What can I do?

You can try a cleaning disk, but optical drives don't seem to have a great lifespan. You may need a new drive.

Go to your BIOS by pressing F2 key and check if Hard drive and Optical drive is detected. Go to boot option and check if the Optical Drive is in the first option and Hard drive second, so that you can RUN OPERATING SYSTEM SETUP form Optical drive if there's no OPERATING SYSTEM INSTALLED.
