[QUOTE="EvenStranger, post: 1171762, member: 181804"] A blank white screen at start is usually a good indicator that the hard drive has failed. If you feel comfortable removing the drive, I'd do so, and boot from the system disk (can't say CDs anymore, now that the Air comes on thumb drives!) that came with the computer. If you get a normal boot from the restore media, then you'll need to replace the hard drive and see if you can salvage anything from the old drive if necessary. If you don't feel comfortable removing the drive, take it to an Apple service provider and have them test it. [/QUOTE]
