The flashing question/finder face means the computer can't find an OS to boot... This can be caused by a corrupted install, a bad harddrive, or a few other things... Basically, you have to wipe out everything and re-install... How old is the hard drive in it?

You don't have to wipe everything. First start up from your system installation disk and run disk utilities to see if you can repair your drive.

Der... Forgot... I would highly suggest wiping it completely out though, unless you have a ton of photo's and movies/music on it

Skippy - If the Disk Repair fails what other steps can the OP do before wiping everything? Then what to do if the (what kind of wipe?), fails?

Is this a test?? If the disk repair fails, I would try target disk mode to make sure it's not the hard drive. If he goes for a wipe, zero out the data and go with the recomended disk format for which ever OS he decides to use.

+ Not a test, just trying to get you to think and give a more complete answer. I couldn't give you an upvote the way it was. Now I can. Next step is replacing the hard drive.
