[QUOTE="trinityt, post: 1550140, member: 152767"] I had a very very slow late 2009 MacBook Pro and it was driving me crazy and I could not find a reason for it. I discovered this and I am so happy, I did the process 3 times with no change, I didn't know how long to hold the various keys and power button. Then the 4th time, a long thin horizontal bar appeared and slowly filled from the left to the right. Now it works so nicely, I am so happy. I am not computer savvy but this worked for me.
