[QUOTE="londonmos, post: 813556, member: 50909"] Hi I'm having a problem which i haven't had 'till now. When I woke up this morning there was a sign on my desktop saying something like "you need to restart your mac. Press the shut down button and hold for 5 seconds or use the restart button. So I pressed the power button. When I tried to turn on the computer it didn't work. It was restarting every 10 seconds. I think it freezes at some point because it gets to the grey screen with the apple but there isn't an idle circle. I tried starting up in safe mode but it didn't worked. I tried inserting the install DVD and pressing the option key to select it but the computer wasn't responding at all. I tried again but this time pressing c key it didn't worked again. I pulled the power cord for 5 minutes but this didn't change a thing at all. I'm out of options and I don't know what to do. The problem is that I'm trying to get to the disk utility but I can't because the iMac isn't responding. Please help.... [/QUOTE]
