DONT WORRY!!! All you need to do is back up your important stuff onto disks or flash-drives(like docs, pics, payed for programs and any other important stuff. After that, just reinstall mac OS X. That will clear up the problem and you just need to put your stuff back onto the computer. You say you can't open ur disk drive? All you have to do is hold down the left mouse key. This will open up the cd drive for mac-books and eject cd's on desktop macs. It will take less then 2 hours.

hey thnx for the info. although this left click thingie didnt work i did a funny thing: i opened my disk tray trough itunes! lol
anyway i didnt need to backup anything since i used installs disks to repair my macosx and now work smoothly again 🙂
apple is too sure that their software wont crash, so they never made an external button to open disc tray on macpro. well they never thought that a stupid guy like me could ruin the whole system heh
