Help!

We got our cd-rom drive last week.  Since we don't have any
cd-rom's yet, I've been using Felix Lugo's cdplayer to test
the drive using audio cd's.  Worked great.  (Thanks, Felix!)

Now last night, a colleague shut off my computer and the drive
so that she could take the SCSI cable to use on our tape drive
(we're still waiting on the cable we ordered along with the
cd-rom drive, so for now we have to share).

I hooked it back up today, and now it doesn't work!  The drive
will not accept a disc for loading.  I push it in and the disc
pops right back out, rather than being sucked inside by the
drive.  Any ideas before I send it back?  I'm hoping there is
something simple that I can fix.  Anyone else have a similar
experience with a drive that refuses to load a disc?
