Everytime I turn my computer on, the screen won't go past the grey apple with the progress indicator. I've tried unplugging the AC Adaptor, removing the battery, resetting it, pressing Shift + Alt + Apple + Power for 5 seconds, then Alt+Apple+P+R for three chimes and even Alt+Apple+O+F and typing 'reset-nvram' enter and 'reset-all' enter only to reboot back to the same spot. When I go into single user mode and type 'sh /etc/rc' to reboot system it says it can't find root user and is sleeping and tries again...I let it run all night and still no progress...what makes it even worse is that I had just got my MotherBoard fixed and hard drive cleaned. Is there anythin else to do BESIDES buying a new laptop?
