Is there a way to check if this is functioning properly, eg. using the Control Panel or some such other location on my computer?? This was a free computer so cant complain too much.

I tried the paper clip, the light came on and can hear sounds of trying to open, but nothing, Also tried through the My Computer - Eject and nothing, I am still stuck!

i'll go ahead and give this a shot just cause no one else answered: hope you find something better.
right click "my computer", go to properties, then hardware, then device manager, then cd/dvd-rom drives, double click the drive, then hit troubleshoot.

Also, the following may be worth a try. It's a program that opens the CD-ROM drive in case the button is in an inconvenient place. Hopefully it works.

two ways...
1. Stick a paper clip in the small hole located on the front of your CDROM drive...just below the door.
2. Double click on my computer, right click on CDROM...and click open CD
let us know.
