That's why we NEVER suggest a Floyd Rose for beginners.
First of all, you should have blocked the floyd rose. Remember....... the tighter the strings, the more it pulls. Because it's a floating bridge (ie, is basically held up by the strings and not using the body for support), every string you tune will effect another.

Since the alignment is off already, you might have to send to a shop for a re-setup...... which CAN cost about RM100 and above depending on where you go.

The tuners at the back of the floyd rose.....
What you do, is set all of them to the same height, roughly the middle point....
You DO know there are tuners at the back of the floyd rose, right? They are for minor increments of adjustments, even after you've locked the nut.
