[QUOTE="klamariie, post: 1133654, member: 144761"] i tried this, to no avail. after that, i went into disk utility and looked around a bit, and clicked on my hard drive (partion) on the left, and went to the "restore" tab. i thought maybe, if i copied the install dvd onto the hard drive, that would do something. after it was done, i shut it down, and turned it back on, and ejected the disc. the apple logo came up (even with no disk) and i *thought* i had finally fixed it, but then i got this (click the link): [url]http://flic.kr/p/8PUfvj[/url] (sorry if it's crappy quality, i took it on my phone.) so, i restarted it, same thing. i tried to restart it a couple times, but it kept saying the same thing. would it be better for me to just re partition the drive, without the files copied onto it, or what? i'm not really any good at this, so i really appreciate everyone's input. thanks in advance.
