I am extremely angry right now, I have spent the last 2 hours looking into doccumentation as to how to fix my problem, and google searches dont come up with anything even close.
I did the EFI firmware upgrade that was released recently.
I did what it said, but my computer never shut down at the "close apps and shut down" step. It just hung. Eventually I did a hard shut down, and then attempted to do the rest of the instructions.
That failed. Now my computer works for the most part, but itunes hangs, disc utility hangs, and my computer always gets stuck shutting down and never does. So I have to hard shut down to shut down my computer.
I tried the firmware restoration cd, but I CANNOT get it to start. Basically, i turn on my computer and keep it held down, and i get several blinks and then hear the "long beep" but the Firmware upgrade didn't start when I initially held the power button down, and the firmware restore does not start either when I take the same steps.
I am on an intel mac mini core solo running 1.4.9
Somebody please help with this, I have no idea what I am doing wrong.
