Yesterday my dock dissapeared, and since I cannot drag and drop from one folder to another. Soon after many things began to go wrong on my Mac like major lags and everything. Disk Utility Verify Tool tells me I must repair so... i tried to repair from the installation disc.
This is what I get when I try to boot from the DVD (the image is in portrait while it should be in paysage...but you get the picture...sorry for the bad joke).
So I thought I'd try to restore from Disk Utility, by putting source files on an external hard drive I had lying around. Same result.
I then tried to boot from a bootable Drive Genius 3 DVD; the screen went black as if it would start but remained black.
Finally I tried to install OSX on my external hard drive thinking I could run the repair from there or run Drive Genius to repair it but after 45% the installation automatically restarts, or it's something else which went wrong because after the restart the installation does not continue. I have all .pkg's copied onto the external hdd but nothing else.
Does anybody here have an idea? I'm out of ressources... Thanks in advance
