Hi Daniel, I just had the exact same thing happen with a Mac Mini. The only reason I did not post in response to your question is because I thought you said the display was not responding. My monitor was still working. My Mini would not boot. Even got the DiskWarrior cd stuck to the point where it could not be ejected in open firmware. New hd fixed the problem completely. Fortunately, it was still under AppleCare and I had a backup. Best of luck getting back up and running. Jim -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
