[QUOTE="baggss, post: 1261094, member: 6762"] Boot the Macbook Pro from the DVD that came with it, open disc utility and run repair permissions and verify the disc. If all else fails do an Archive and Instal and reload OSX from the disc (this will move your profile to a new system folder that will be installed, your data will not be lost). You'll have to run the updater to get any new software that is out there but this is your best bet to start with. If the instal fails or the same issues occur after, then it is likely the HDD or the logic board. [/QUOTE]
