[QUOTE="Kevriano, post: 840476, member: 18605"] Try running FSCK. If your using Tiger or Leopard you can check it without a disc. Start up holding down command and s, after the text has loaded type fsck -y (exactly like that with the space) and let it run through. It will tell you if the HD is ok or not. Repeat until it says the Macintosh HD appears to be ok. If it won't then the HDD would indeed appear to have died, though I'd be surprised. Come back after you've tried with the results, and make a note of what it says if it errors. [/QUOTE]
