  • Opening DVD tray on a Mac Pro’s blue screen

    I’m trying to reinstall the OS X on a Mac Pro the stops loading at a blue screen but can’t open the disk tray. Is there a key stroke that opens the tray before the OS is completely open? I know where the open tray button is on the keyboard but this does not work on the blue screen that the computer is stopping at.
