Hello folks,
so I turned on my 2006 MacBook Pro yesterday, and it made the startup chime, then went to a gray screen with a Folder and a Question Mark flashing continuously. I looked up the problem online, and it said to hold down the shift key while starting up. I did this, still the question-mark folder. Then it said to reset the PRAM. I tried this. Still, the "?" Folder. Then I tried restarting while holding down the Option key. This at least got me somewhere - to a blank gray screen and an arrow. So I could move the arrow around with the mouse, but absolutely nothing else. Just a blank gray screen. This is as far as I've gotten. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
Jacob
