[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1452895, member: 24098"] Before you go any further, it would be prudent to run an extended hardware test on the machine to make sure you actually have a software issue (which is what reinstalling would address) and not a failing hard drive or another malady. When you're trying to fix a house, it's best to make sure the foundation is solid before you start polishing doorknobs. How to run the Apple Hardware Test is detailed here: [url=http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1509]Intel-based Macs: Using Apple Hardware Test[/url] [/QUOTE]
