Clicking noise on startup, followed by folder with flashing "?"
I recently started hearing a loud clicking noise when starting up my iMac. Today, right after 3 or 4 clicks a folder appeared in the center of the screen with a flashing "?" in the middle. I was able to restart after that and got up and running, but now I'm afraid to shut down.
Any thoughts as to what might be causing the clicking noise?
Thanks!
iMac (Intel), Mac OS X (10.6.1)
