[QUOTE="gort, post: 219732, member: 5540"] My powerbook g4 17" just crapped out! The hard drive keeps making this ticking sound now whenever I turn it on. Whenever I put in a bootable CD to reinstall os x it does not even detect the hard drive under volumes. Does anybody have any ideas on where to go from here? Am I screwed and need a new disk? Luckily I have apple care but there is a lot of stuff on my machine that I need! [/QUOTE]
