well - this is the 4th time this has happened to me this month and its getting ridiculous. the past 3 times its been freezing on my regular updates...then when i go to restart because nothing is responding, it gets stuck on the grey screen with the apple logo and the spinning wheel. THIS TIME....i install parallels on my macbook leopard and its working fine up until today (have only had it 3 days). it's going slow to the point where its about to stop responding so i restart. i had a feeling it was going to give me the grey screen for some reason and just my luck...it did. im at my parents house for christmas and i do not have my disks with me. i have done the restart and cmd + option + p + r. i have tried to start it in safe mode but it doesn't work. i have taken the battery out. nothing is working. the past few times i havnt really had a lot on my computer so i just wiped it clean and restored everything. well, now i have things on here that i need so i can't do that. i guess i can wait to get back to my apartment tomorrow and use the disks because i saw somewhere where you can do a "archive and install" so i wont lose anything? but in the meantime...is there anything i can do?
thanks.
thanks.
