Should I attempt to go inside the Tower and find the problem? Or take the Tower to a computer store and get prepared to get "ripped off".

hello DoctorGallop,
if you feel comfortable enough to open the pc you can check and make sure that all the wires on the dvd rom are all connected properly genie3251 |

If you can still read from the dvd drive, get a paperclip and straighten it out.
On the front of the player should be a small hole which you can push in...and when you push hard enough it will eject the tray - if it doesn't, something is wrong with the mechanism itself and you need a new dvd drive.
