G5 cd/dvd drive issue

[bluseashell]

I just joined this site.
Been outta the loop for 5 yrs cause I was in an accident and jst got a used G5 tower to get back to work.
How the heck do you open the disk drive...no button on the tower that I can find and command E or other crap I've tried is gettin me no where.
help and forgive my lameness...

Welcome to Mac-Forums! All power to your full recovery.

Try F12 on the keyboard for a start. Maybe the k/b has one of the older-fashioned solid arrow head symbol keys as well.

And a good way to stay onside is not double post. Mods do not like that.
