Hello. Recently I put together a new build – P8P67 Pro, i5 2500k, Ripjaw RAM, H70 CPU cooler, Samsung 204UI 2TB HDD – but I'm reusing my older hard drives, power supply and graphics card.

My first problem is that my new Samsung HDD won't show up anywhere (BIOS or Windows). I took it back to the store and tried it in other computers and it shows up straight away without any hassle. Since it's undamaged I can't return it and I'm stuck with it. Before anyone suggests it, yes I've tried using different SATA ports, and cables.

My CD ROM is stuck because of the broken CD in it. Please tell me how to open it with without opening the computer cover because it is locked too and I don't have its key.

I bought new video card before couple of days, and I have a problem. When I installed the video board in my MoBo and rebooted the system the POST (power on self test) was terribly slow. Before it passed for seconds, now it needs around 10-15 minutes. I tested the video on my neighbour's PC, and it worked with no problems. What is the reason for this? Do I need to change my MoBo?
