Hello, I have a Mac Centris 610, which has been
working perfectly until recently, and out of nowhere.
It stopped booting up. What specifically happens is,
during boot-up, all of a sudden the hard drive stops,
as though shutting down, and the "mac face" in the
center of the screen turns into a flashing questions
mark.
I have the 7 system disks, and when I put the 1st one
in, it loads it, says "Welcome to Macintosh" and then
"Welcome to System 7.5
Your Macintosh needs certain software to start up in
System 7.5"
etc. moving right along, I click "continue", and
then...
"System 7.5 Installation
The Installer cannot update the selected disk named
"Install Disk 1.
Please click Switch Disk to choose a different disk."
And under "Destination Disk" it shows "Install Disk 1"
and the "Switch Disk" option is faded, meaning I
cannot click it! So is the "Install" option.
I have concluded that the big problem here is that The
Centris has failed to acknowledge the existence of the
hard drive.
Any help would be tremendously appreciated!
Justin
