- 17" MBP, 2.33GHz, 100GB@7200rpm
Hi,
Just received my MBP and I started transfering files using an external drive and at the third transfer, after the files were transfered, I tryed to delete what's on the drive (is there a "cut" fonction on a Mac instead of just copying files?).
That when I got a "spinning color disk"... Been that way for over 30 mins now! can't force a quit of anything, the mouse cursor still responds, but that all I can do...
What should I do ? Should I unplug and remove the battery?
PS: For those who complain about Windows BSOD, I find this experience, on my first hour on a Mac to be just as bad as those win98 crashes... It's actually worse, because I don't know what to do!!!
Thanks,
Stephan
