What is a 'network volume', 'start up disk', and Hard Drive issues
The memory is working, but I can't make the hard drive work. when i turn on the computer, there's a flashing folder with a question mark on, and even if left for a while, it does nothing.
What can I do to make my computer work? I tried putting in the first disk of leopard OSX, but the computer just spat it out again, and ever since, the cd drive seems to be having issues, so now I have a dvd stuck in my computer.
So then i was looking through system preferences, and i'm wondering if the following would help/has ANYTHING to do with my issues!:
System Preferences -> start up disk. Then there are 2 options, my current hard drive (and when it is selected below it says 'You have selected Mac OS X, 10.5.8, on the volume Macintosh HD.) and a hard drive with a question mark on it called 'Network startup' (and when it is selected, it says below, 'you have selected to search for a new network volume at startup'
So yeah, what can i do? Thanks!
