[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1043290, member: 42497"] Pop in the original install disc, not the one that came with the MBP as it will NEVER boot. Reboot and immediately after the chimes hold down the 'C" key and not the Option key. Hopefully you will get the Installer page, go to Utilities and run Repair Disk. Hopefully that will fix your problem, if not you will be in for a reformat and clean install so trust you have everything backed up to an external drive? [/QUOTE]
