powerbook g4 -rip [View All]

as I noted in my recent post here - when I have a problem, it's generally catastrophic.

I backed up and backed up before using the install disk to run disk utilties. it couldn't repair my hd. not only couldn't it repair my hard drive, it seems that it made my computer so unhappy that I can no longer start it up - or do anything else.

My computer was working just fine before I decided to use the disk utilities. now it's dead.

this is the same thing that happened to me when my last computer died. I guess it was just a matter of time.

Five years is a long time in computer usage - to me, it still seems wasteful. oh well.

I can't even get the disk out of the computer.
