HELP!!!

After a couple failed attempts at upgrading Office, I tried to re-insert the original CD. But the PB just spit it back out.

WTF? I put in another CD...same thing. Another...same thing. I have no idea what is going on. I restarted, shutdown...no luck.

Please Help!!

Can you boot into single user mode?

While starting up hold down the Apple key + "S".

Then when all the text scrolls by and you get a cursor type in:

/sbin/fsck -y

If it reports that your Harddrive was OK, then type in:

reboot

If the process notes, that it changed your drive then rerun:

/sbin/fsck -y

basically keep running it, until all the problems go away.

Good luck,
and keep up posted,

It could be a bad drive. That happened to me.

Listen to the drive when you put the CD in. If it's not spinning up, chances are it's a bad drive.

argh!!!


Thanks for the help, but to no avail.

I rebooted into 9 and it is spitting it out there.

This just happed out of the blue. Is there a way to test the hardware?

Hardware test cd but allow me to save you the effort and tell you to take that baby to an apple store or call apple and send it in for repair. You must of got a dud and trust me its a rare occurance. sorry man.
