I did pull the battery and power adapter as you suggested and it did restart. However, the Pismo will now not recognise its hard drive but will start from the Tiger DVD Installer disk. Even Disk Utility on the installer disk does not show the Pismo hard drive. I restarted using the Option. Command, P and R keys and waited for 4 starts. Still no hard drive showing. Is there another procedure to rectify this and have the drive appear?
