Last week my son inserted a music cd into my powerbook g4 in an attempt to load some songs from it to his psp. The cd played and the songs loaded into the itunes library. However when I tried to eject the cd it would not come out right away. It sounded like the drive was still running it. After pressing the eject button several times it eventually came out but now it will not function. I can insert a data or music disc and it sounds like it is running, but nothing appears on the screen.

Is my drive ruined or is there something I can do to reset/clear it?

Thanks in advance.
