[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1622760"] The I/O error indicates that the hard drive is probably toast. Step one would be replacing it. You can order a DVD of Snow Leopard (10.6) from Apple for $20. You will need this to install an OS on a machine that old. After those two things have been done, you will PROBABLY have a perfectly working old MacBook. Worth probably what you paid for the replacement drive and the DVD. [/QUOTE]
