[QUOTE="Noels, post: 707227, member: 49942"] talon tsi, Probably not the hard drive then, so the drop damaged something else, could be the optical drive or a damaged logic board.... Have you tried starting it in Safe mode? I assume you don't have Apple Care? You could take the machine by an Apple Store and ask them for an estimate to repair - you would find out what's wrong with it and could take it or leave it, maybe try to fix yourself or buy a new one.
