FIPS GETTING INSTALLED
I have just bought a 15in Mac Book Pro. Latest OS. Applied all Software Updates & 2011 MS Office. Somehow FIPS is being installed and it hangs the whole OS. Genius Bar has reinstalled the OS adn I can get it to boot. Left it on overnight to back-up to Timecapsule. Now, it won't boot again due to FIPS installed. I know this because I put it into Verbose Mode and it hangs at FIPS.
Any ideas as to why? The only solution that the Genuis Bar says is to re-install. This looks to be a Catch-22 at this point.
Any ideas?
This is a personal Laptop and not Business.
