My first problem was that I tried to log into my main user account (the admin account, the only other account I had was a "Guest" account), and it wouldn't work, I could only login into the guest account, and after reading around the internet etc I couldn't find a fix. So I thought I'd change the root password for my whole system so I can log in with the "Other" option (not Guest or my usual account) and try to back up all my files etc and try a clean install. THEN I couldn't get past the off-white Apple Screen with the spinning "cog", so then I thought I'd try an archive and install by putting in my disk and holding the 'C' button, but now it just comes with a message saying I need to restart my Computer and writing in the background including the text:
"unable to find driver for this platform: "ACPI""
Basically, the Kernel Error message thing.
So I thought it may have been my Hard Drive, so my new one arrived today, and after going to the shops to find the right screwdrivers etc, I'm getting the same message when hold down C, and if I leave it to run it just goes to a question mark folder.
I've put in my old RAM and tested that with both sticks, then each stick one by one, and still get the same problem?
Cheers.
