[QUOTE="ProfessorChaos, post: 1803411, member: 400315"] Hello , My mid 2011 ( not 100 percent sure about the model ) yesterday when I tried to use it , it was frozen . after trying what I could do to unfreeze it . I finally powered it down using the Power Botton . Since then , when it starts up it will only show the " macOs Utilities " screen. When I run First Aid on the " Macintosh HD" ( this is the only internal HD for this computer ) in Disk Utility : the report shows that the process has failed . If I try to select a start up disk nothing shows up . if this a classic case of a HD that had died ? If so , will reinstall macOS , do anything ? Do I have any other options to try ? Thanks for any feedback . [/QUOTE]
