[QUOTE="delux0, post: 1006945, member: 135396"] Ok, so here is the story and background information: I have a macbook pro running 10.6.2 and i have windows 7 running on bootcamp. Yesterday i was in osx then switched over to windows to do a few things. This morning i restart my computer to go back into osx and i get the grey screen with the spinning wheel and under the wheel is a loading bar, it loads half way then starts over with another loading halfway then the computer shuts down. So i called apple today and the guy said that i am missing the boot drives and to bring it into the store. When i bring it in the guy does some tests and says that i need a new hard drive. Im not sure that this is true because when in windows i use the program macdrive 8 and i can see all the files and use them from the osx side. If the hard drive was broken wouldnt i not be able to do that? BTW macdrive does acknowlege that something is wrong by saying "this drive is damaged would you like to mount anyways" so i do and it works fine. What do you think?? Thanks [/QUOTE]
