I'm guessing that you mean the CD or DVD drive. There is a little hole on the drive door. you can put an opened paper clip in that hole to open the tray. make sure there isn't anything jamming it.
If you cannot eject a DVD or CD from the drive, you will find a small hole in the drive cover - Take a paper clip and straighten it, then poke the clip through the hole, then gently but firmly push, and the tray will open.
If there is no physical eject button on your dvd drive, you can eject it with your operating system. Go to My computer and right-click on your dvd drive. Your dvd drive should eject.
I have the same problem but not just with windows 7 but any OS I install on my dell xps m1710. Its a H/W fault and the best solution is to right click on the cd drive and make it eject! i would also recommend you change your CD Drive/get a new one.
you can see a slot on the right side of the laptop. you need to put cd in to that. you cannot see any CD Drive coming out of this model. Its a slot CD/DVD reader. So jst push the CD in to the slot. it will start palying. to eject go to my computer and right click on CD driver and click on eject. thats it ok
Im a dell tech, and i hate those cdrom styles, but, that is what the consumer wants, so we make them. Try starting the machine, then press F2 to enter the BIOS. once in the bios, press the eject button. listen for any noises, (an attempt to eject). if you hear a sound, it means the drive should be capable of ejecting the disc, and perhaps the disc has not seated correctly. If the disc will not eject, you must contact Dell. This is from the DELL dcse site: "
Optical Drive
The XPS M1330 has a slot-loading optical drive instead of a conventional tray-loading module. There is
no mechanical eject mechanism for the drive to eject stuck discs. This means you must replace the drive if a disc
gets stuck in the drive. After replacing the drive, disassemble the old drive to remove the disc for the
customer."
