[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1331996, member: 46727"] The hard drive heat sensor even if it were missing would not prevent the machine from booting OK. Of course then the hard drive fan would go full speed without the sensor. I'm having a hard time following what you did. You talk about mounting something via firewire to your MBP.... was that the new hard drive? You installed Lion on the new hard drive from the MBP? Then you state that the hard drive runs fine in start up disk mode? Was that from an external firewire carrier? So the iMac will boot from the external carrier but not when the hard drive is mounted internally? Please clarify.... [/QUOTE]
