Last night my MacBook Pro had the "spinning wheel" going for over an hour. I decided to close it up for the night. Today I opened the laptop and the wheel was still spinning. I held the power button down until it turned off and then when I tried to restart it the screen was gray with a flashing folder with a question mark in it. This persisted for a few minutes and then the laptop shutdown. I inserted the OS X Snow Leopard disc (as per the apple support site instructions) and now it comes up with a gray screen with the apple logo on it, tries to read the disc and then eventually the apple logo becomes the power button logo with a message box over it saying I need to restart the computer. I have restarted several times with the same result. Any ideas of how to fix this problem?
Thanks.
