[QUOTE="Collin Bl, post: 1029605, member: 95994"] When u are using Option on boot up the normal scene is that you have 2 or more bootable drives/disks to choose from. As the Ext HD is showing, then 1 click to select which drive and hit return to start the boot - normal drive is not bootable so not showing up. Seems the OS on the Internal HD is not available so to see where things are at, Boot off the install disk that came with the computer and after selecting language then go for disk utility in drop down menu and Erase the drive. If u cannot do that then good chance the drive is doorstop material. [/QUOTE]
