First thing to check is that there is not a disk already in the drive - it is possible even if it doesn't appear on the desktop, and the symptoms you describe are not dissimilar to what you would expect if the drive is already occupied. Reboot your system while holding the (left) mouse button down. If there's a disk in there, it'll attempt to spit it out during the startup process.
Assuming no disk, make sure you are feeding the disk far enough for the mechanism to grasp it (it needs to be almost all the way in).
After that, I would try a PMU reset if it is a PPC Mac mini, or an SMC reset if an Intel model - instructions as follows:
To reset the PMU +(PPC mini only)+
-Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord.
-Wait 10 seconds.
-Plug in the power cord while simultaneously pressing and holding the power button on the back of the computer.
-Let go of the power button.
-Press the power button once more to start up your Mac mini.
To reset the SMC +(Intel mini only)+
-From the Apple menu, choose Shut Down (or if the computer is not responding, hold the power button until it turns off).
-Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord and any display cables.
-Wait at least 15 seconds.
-Plug the power cord back in, making sure the power button is not being pressed at the time.
-Then reconnect your keyboard and mouse to the computer.
-Press the power button on the back to start up your computer.
