A few days ago, while trying to upgrade to Mavericks (could be Yosemite I'm not sure), my macbook pro froze on me and I was forced to hold down the power button to turn it off. Since that, it will not boot back up. All I get is the white screen with the flashing question mark and folder.
I've tried everything I could find online to get it going. I held down alt/option while turning it on, reset PVRam, everything. But nothin worked.
I figured I may have corrupted something on my hard drive but just to check, I took my hard drive out and put it into my girlfriends macbook, and it booted up fine.
I then put her hard drive into my machine, and I get the same folder with question mark.
This tells me the hard drive is perfectly fine, and there may be a problem with my processor? Or maybe something else?
I'm just trying to figure out if this can be fixed or do I need to dump this machine and get a new one...
Any ideas??
