[QUOTE="prettyinpunk, post: 758533, member: 44627"] I was downloading a file that my friend sent me, when I turned away my Macbook started making a horrible noise (crackling or scratching almost). I attempted to restart thinking it might be a li'l tired but it didn't respond so I force shut down with the power button. No upon load up I get a grey screen which after a minute displays a folder with a flashing "?". Is this resovable? I am currently at work so am unable to access my Apple discs at the moment but will simply reinstalling the operating system resolve this. I don't care if i lose anything, I simply want a health computer :Grimmace: Thanks guys! [/QUOTE]
