i'm relatively new to the world of macs so please bear with me.
i've just had a problem with a mac mini. i bought it second hand and it has 2 hard-drives, one of which contained windows operating system and was write protected. in the process of trying to delete the windows disk i changed the start up disk, then deleted some files but when i tried to restart i just get a black screen. presumably i have deleted some crucial start up info and cannot revert to the original start up disk. does this sound likely? i only have a wireless keyboard so it's possible that commands aren't being recognised

Do you have the install DVDs? Wouldn't it be a good idea to make a start with a fresh installation?
