Hi,
Is you PC still able to boot to a blue screen but you can not use your CD?
Have you set the BIOS to boot from CD?
http://www.hiren.info/pages/bios-boot-cdrom is a site to show you how if you don't know or you can Google it for other sites.
If your BIOS is set and you still can not get the PC to read A CD, check all leads, power and ribbon on both ends. Is there any activity (lights) from your CD when booting?

Hi,
I can only guess that your BIOS on your motherboard is the fault, six months old, take it back and ask them to check it for you. You can access your info from any other PC with your HD connected either externally or as a slave or secondary master.
