Try a PRAM reset:
Any unusual noises coming from it?
Thanks. Tried this but no luck! It did spit out my start-up disk, however!
Have you tried booting to your startup disc? (Hold Option on boot to access the startup manager, which will let you choose between internal HD and optical drive)
Is the "startup" disc the same as the "install" disc? I have attempted to start with the install disc using command+C. I'll try your method.
OK. I see a curser! That must mean something! But it won't move. Nothing else happening. <sigh>.
OK. got to the Leopard installer screen--took a very long time. "Select a Destination" to install screen in blank! That can't be good! Still waiting...
