[QUOTE="McYukon, post: 1115452, member: 101117"] If the HD is unbootable and your aren't able to start the Mac in target mode, no. If you can start it in target mode, you also need another Mac. Hook up the unbootable Mac to the other Mac and copy the important files over. The reinstall the system on the unbootable one and put the files back. [/QUOTE]
