[QUOTE="magentawave, post: 1739925, member: 236694"] I tried booting from Disk 2 when starting the computer while pressing the D key and every time it just booted like normal. So instead, I installed Onyx and went through all the steps of repairing permissions and files. I was able to start the computer like normal this morning which is a good sign considering it had gotten to the point where it was requiring me to do an SMC reset every time before that. Keeping my fingers crossed that everything is okay now... For future reference, do you know why I couldn't do the hardware test from Disk 2? [/QUOTE]
