[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1050098, member: 46727"] Sounds like you might not only have a failing hard drive, but also possibly something wrong with the graphics processor, or perhaps the video cable to the display. I don't know what exact model you have, but certain MBP machines are still covered under an Apple extended warranty because of defective GPUs. It may pay to give Apple service a call and find out if you're still covered. As for the hard drive.... I suggest this software: [URL="http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue.php"]Data Rescue III[/URL]. It's $99 but well worth the price if you value your data. You can download a trial version to test with. If it can get your data back, dig out your credit card and buy a license. Let us know if you need more help. Regards. [/QUOTE]
