[QUOTE="jamesx, post: 354853"] when my macbook would not boot, they had me boot from the install disk 1 and do an "archive install" i think it was called. it took about 2 hours and i did not lose any data and it fixed the problem. just for reference, it would not boot after i updated to 10.4.9. after i did the archive install, i updated and it worked fine and no problems sense then. i am actually not really sure what an archive install is, but it worked....yoy can always call apple, their tech was one of the best i have ever had to deal with. i was impressed.
