A computer panel for protecting an optical disc drive includes a panel base defining an opening, a cover and a rotating member. A guiding rail is defined in the panel base in a direction perpendicular to a moving direction of the disc tray extending in or out the opening. A connecting bar extends from the cover and one end thereof is received in the guiding rail and slidable therein. The rotating member is connected between the panel base and the cover with one end thereof pivotally positioned on the panel base and the other end pivotally connected to the connecting bar. Wherein the pivot member is driven to rotate outward due to the disc tray of the optical disc drive extending outward to push the cover, thereby pulling the connecting bar to slide up in the guiding rail and driving the cover to rotate outward and expose the opening.
