[QUOTE="applesauce123, post: 1305607, member: 217140"] So, I was having some issues with my macbook pro, and decided to run a disk check on my internal hard drive with Disk Utility. It found some issues and said I should Repair Disk, after booting from the install disk. When I try to boot from the disk, though, I get the gray loading screen with the gear scrolling around and then the screen goes black, but the drives are still spinning. Nothing happens, and eventually I restart and try again, with no luck. I've tried using both the C key during startup and the Option key to select the startup disk but neither have worked. I can still boot fine from the hard drive, and in safe mode. Anybody know how to fix this? [/QUOTE]
