[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1030446, member: 46727"] I agree, it does sound like your HDD has possibly failed. What you might want to do (in addition to what the previous post suggested) is break out your original install DVD media and boot your MacBook with it. Insert the DVD, reboot your MacBook and hold down the C key immediately upon hearing the POST chime. It may take some time to boot up, so be patient. After it boots, cancel out the install process and select "Utilities", "Disk Utility" from the top menu. Select the First Aid tab and do the verify and repair. Let us know what happens. Regards.

Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
