[QUOTE="viduka321, post: 1309442, member: 218087"] I have just installed a new hard drive 160GB in my PowerBook 12" G4 I then put the Disc 1 which came with it in the drive and booted in to the first screen. I then go to Disc Utilities and created a partition and called it Macintosh HD and then closed the Utilities. I then selected the hard drive and it loads all the way through to the end of Disc 1 when it the restarts. After the restart it goes to the grey screen with the spinning circle then the screen goes dark grey and says " You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power Button for several seconds or press the Restart Button" in several languages. It does this each time I restart. Can any one give me a step by step guide of how to fix this? Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
