I saw someone who bought a macbook off of eBay and got screwed by the seller. I hope that wasn't your friend. anyway, go through the forums. I'm sure you'll find the anwer there. Sorry I don't know the answer offhand. There's gotta be a way to boot up in "safemode" like a pc and get your problem resolved. Good luck

Insert your Mac OS X installation disk, restart the computer and hold down the C key. When the Mac OS X installer starts up, look in the menus at the top for the disk utility. Use this to verify and repair your file permissions and your disk. This should fix your problem. You do not need to reinstall Mac OS X.

you're in all risk allergic to a minimum of a few thing interior the inspiration. in case you certainly need to comprehend while you're allergic to it, i might do a pores and skin try. Dab slightly of foundation on your neck, or any gentle section on your physique. I many times dab it on my neck. leave it on for 30-40 5 minutes and wash it off. Pat the section dry and wait awhile, on account which you do no longer prefer to analyze the section when you have rubbed and washed it off. After approximately 5 minutes of waiting, analyze the section and look for pink bumps or any data of inflammation. If there is, then you're allergic to it. If there is not any longer something, then that's the two your pores and skin isn't use to the inspiration yet, or it is not non comedogenic, meaning it does clog pores. go searching the label of the product and notice if it says non comedogenic. If it would not, then it incredibly is your concern, that is clogging your pores and making you wreck out. otherwise, you would be allergic to it. return the product the two way and ask them to recommend yet another foundation line they might carry. good success!

if it is an os issue, there is really a need to run the installation cd. at this point, its not something with the cables, the fact that your computer has power on it.
