The CD drive is not recognizing any CD that I put into it. I
have popped open the case and checked both ends of the
IDE and nothing seems out of the ordinary. Any
suggestions?

Will it boot an original system disk?
If not try a new user, if still not showing, you are headed for
repair on the optical drive, is it under AppleCare Protection
Plan, if yes, call AppleCare Support
