Hello
My macbook pro 15 inch 2008 won't boot from anything. I tried almost evertything. First i had some trouble with the Wi-Fi and now i can't boot. I read that it could be the wifi adapter. Can anyone help me please?

What happens when you try using the original Leopard installation disk?
Ciao.
If ik boot from the CD it looks like its freezes. I tried to install yosemite and than freezes the bar and if im lucky it opens.
Are you certain that the optical drive is functional? Is the installation disk clean and undamaged?
Have you tried booting into the recovery partition (COMMAND + R) and run Disk Utility>First Aid?
Ciao.
That isn't working too. Everything is gone. Recovery and OS X. Its a totaly blank mac.
In order to go forward you will need the following:
Either a functional Leopard installation disk or a functional Snow Leopard retail disk.
You will need a functional DVD drive, internal or external.
You will need a functional HDD It may be the one you have if it not damaged or you may need a new one.
You can make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and they may be able to install an OSX or at the very least tell you what is wrong with your MBP.
Ciao.
