[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1084707"] Sounds like a dead hard drive. Why not ask your friend if he still has the discs that came with the machine? And if he does, smack him around a bit for holding out on you. :) Kidding aside, good luck. Normally I'd suggest you just buy a copy of Snow Leopard (and a new hard drive) to fix this but SL won't run on your machine, and retail copies of Tiger or Leopard are quite pricey. [/QUOTE]
