We lost power yesterday. My quicksilver has been on a really
good surge protector for two years. It wasn't enough this time
however. If I push the on button,a light shows,flickers and dies. The
machine never turns on. I am assuming my hardrive is fried.Am I right
in assuming that I would have to replace the harddrive and re-install
the os? The problem is thta It had Leopard on it. The cost of the new
harddrive ,paying someone to install it and buying Leopard would be
more than the $65 I oroginally paid for the computer.
The question is ,am I right in having to relace the harddrive? It
might be worth it if that is all that is necessary.It is a 1 gig
computer and has a 933 processor.Would I have to do more?
