Put a music cd in my imac to download earlier in the day, came back later in the evening now it wont power up from going to sleep, can hear some movement in the cd drive area but no power or screen?

Does anyone have an idea what is up with my imac. I put a cd in it earlier in the day to download into itunes, left for work and came back to it later in the evening. When I tapped the keboard to to wake it up there was no power, no screen, only a light sound that came from near the cd drive area on the right. I've un plugged it and pluggged back in several times. After that I hit the power button, again I could hear a light sound comming from the area near the cd drive almost like it's the hard drive trying to power up or the cd spining in the drive. It will continue to do this over and over until I either unplug or hold down the power button.

Nothings happening, tried the mouse, tried the keyboard, nothing. I followed the instructions for resetting the SMC and the only thing I get is the light sound I describbed in my earlier message. The more i listen I don't think it's the cd drive, I feel like that would be a little louder than the sound I hear. What I'm hearing sounds like a light spinning sound almost like the hard drive when yo click the keyboard to wake it up, except it keeps doing it over and over again until I unplug the mac. When I plug it back in, it will not make the sound until I press the power button on the back.
