Problem solved: I re-installed Leopard. I checked the logs, it said it could not boot from leopard (the old copy of leopard i had before it crashed) because of a bad HDD. OMG really? So i went out and bought myself a new 80GB EIDE HDD. Btw, I did lose all of my old programs, but i can just download them. As for data backup, let's just say my 320GB SATA drive saved my butt. It had all my info and music fired up and ready to go. Aren't macs neat? You get this happening to you without the pain of losing data. I personally thank everyone who developed and made CCC and Time Machine for Mac OS X Leopard, because i truly owe you one for saving my trusty sawtooth from a barking snappy bad HDD.
Well, lesson learned here. Don't wait for a HDD to fail! Back up your data every day if possible, and make sure everything is running smoothly. The funny thing is, is that the HDD had no signs of HDD failure until yesterday. I took it apart, and the entire disk was charred/scratched inside. How wonderful? Next time i'll think twice before buying Hard drives from Maxtor. -- Sent from my Power mac G4 Sawtooth. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
