Booting problems
Hey all.
I'm having some problems with my 20" iMac. It's the 24.Ghz C2D Aluminium model.
My problem is, whenever I try to start the computer it will either stay on the grey screen and refuse to start into the OSX system and will just idle on the apple logo and the spinning gear thing, about an hour or 2 ago I had a grey screen with the folder and a question mark in it, but after booting it into safe mode, that problem vanished.
However, It does let me boot into safe mode, whilst in safe mode the only thing I cannot do is hear audio.
The only notable change that has been done to the computer is I had 4GB of RAM installed from Crucial about a month and a half ago.
I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and the only additional software thats been installed is Anti Virus (Not the malware haha, I'm using Sophos) and all of my photography Apps, such as lightroom and Photomatix Pro.
Another note I would like to mention, is that I downloaded a trial of Final Cut Pro X from the App store and it doesn't load up. It show the loading screen and then it just forces the Mac to crash.
Please advise me on this as soon as possible!
Thanks, Alex.
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
