- 10.5.8, 2.66Ghz INtel Core 2 Duo, 3GB 800 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM
I'm currently running.
10.5.8
2.66 intel core 2
I ran repair permissions & it gave me a warning that volumes need to be repaired, run start up disc. I proceeded to do so but when I try the "Holding down C" key it doesn't work. My iMac just takes me right to the login screen.
I've tried "Startup Disc" in system preferences but there's no choice to boot from DVD drive as suggested by others. When reading some of the repair permissions findings I'm noticing about 5-6 plist issue's, not sure what that is. The only issue I'm seeing that started about the same time is my sending mail on mac mail is pretty slow, takes about 10 seconds before send is complete & some DVD's & CD's act like they want to eject but then doesn't & reloads again.
Is my hard disc already going out?
