HI

When i have come to start my ibook up today, i turned it on, and all i get is the apple logo in the middle, with the grey circle at the bottom, as ormal, but this is as far as it gets.

I tried the alt + hash + p + r, and that brought in the logon screen, but ir wouldnt accespt my password.

Any ideas? I need to get at my work!

Boot from OS X CD1 and reset the password. See if this helps. (See in the installer menu)
