Boot up holding command-r keys into your Recovery Volume.

The screen should give you these choices...


Restore from TM backup

Reinstall Mac OS X

Get help online

Disk Utility


First run Disk Utility > Repair Disk and see what it reports... if there are problems run until repaired or states it cannot be repaired. Then,

choose Reinstall OS X. This will be an install in place and won't affect any of your own data.
