[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1007628, member: 46727"] The question mark on startup indicates no boot device. With all the testing you did and reinstalling, but still no joy, it sure sounds like a bad hard drive. I'm assuming you ran Disk Utility when booted from your Leopard DVD. How did you manage to do a Time Machine backup if you couldn't boot? Anyway, it appears you need a new hard drive. Salvage what you can from the old one and press on. Regards. [/QUOTE]
