    Check if the power cable to the drive is loose.

    Right click on the drive icon in My Computer and select "eject" see if that works to open AND close the drive tray.

    If it works, then the physical eject button is probably flaky. Not much you can do to fix it, unless your handy with a soldering iron and disasembly.

    You can either get a new drive or if it works, continue using Window's eject feature.
