[QUOTE="lupin84, post: 1019154, member: 46442"] Hi, I was playing on my computer this evening and I'd just exited out of a game and was about to open the internet when I got a message telling me I need to restart my computer. I did that and then it would no longer boot, all I get is the gray screen, the apple then the error message again. I've googled this and it seems it is a kernal error. I ran my mac osx disc like it suggested and check for hardware errors. Both the normal and extended scans came away with no problems found. Since then I have tried various things: Hold x Hold s Hold Option Hold Cmd-Option-P-R Hold Shift But none managed to get me past that loading stage. I'm running out of ideas. I would try to reinstall the OS but there are some files that I've had in the past week and not yet backed up which I would really like to rescue if at all possible. Does anyone have any further suggestions? If not I guess I'm on the phone in the morning to my local mac reapir shop. :( Any help would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
