[QUOTE="dubbs, post: 1628597, member: 339933"] Hi, I have been trying for 5 days ;) It wont boot from the DVD drive. The only way to boot it is hold down SHIFT to boot in safe mode. I have re-installed 10.6 twice now, both times having prior to the install having got the machine to boot from DVD after about 3 or 4 restarts that failed and repaired all the disk issues... The bug seems to go away for a day or 2 and then reappears... It all works fine in SAFE MODE... been using the machine in that format most of the week... seems odd that it will boot and run in safe mode, but not in normal mode. Is it normal that in safe mode, things like the audio does not work etc? No viruses no. [/QUOTE]
