[QUOTE="swn5363, post: 42172"] Okay... I know it's been a while, but I've tried all kinds of things, including a clean install of 8.6 which came with the computer. It seems I have a hardware problem. 8.6 installed okay, but crashes on startup. I ran the disk first aid from the install disc and it's showing "MountCheck found minor errors". I tried to repair... and it appears to repair it successfully, but it still finds the problem when I verify the HDD. Any ideas? Could the HDD not be seated correctly, or just be a bad unit? This is incredibly frustrating, but thanks for all the help so far. [/QUOTE]
