Does it spit out the CD right away or does the player spin-up, try to read and then spits it out? If it's the former, the problem is mechanical. You may have somepeice of debris clogging the works. Try getting some electronics spray from Radio Shack and spraying the slot well. Note: I suggest trying this with the power off.
