[QUOTE="rwjw, post: 1517600, member: 302225"] Thanks everyone for your replies. Finally solved my problem. Firstly confirmed no hardware issues, computer passed hardware test and I swapped disks between MacBooks. I was able to start a computer from the 500gb drive via FireWire using command/option and selecting new HDD. Software confirmed as 10.4.10. As the MacBooks had been updated to 10.4.11 Previously I connected to the Internet and updated software, still through FireWire. After disconnecting and a restart the PC with the new drive works as new only faster....sorted. [/QUOTE]
