Computer will not finish starting up...
I thought it had frozen after waiting about 5 minutes, so I tried turning it off and on again... nope, same result. So the next time I waited, and after aproximately 25 minutes the screen went blue. After about 4 or 5 minutes the window that shows the MacOSX loading process opened up, but after waiting for about 10 minutes nothing happened beyond that. So I tried the simple unplugging everything and waiting a while to plug it back in, and now even after waiting aproximately an hour, my mac won't even get to the blue screen.
So I'm getting a little paranoid... any help?
(Also, sorry I posted this a few hours ago in the Mac Mini forum, but this forum seems more frequently posted at, and I'm mostly sure the problem is a software issue not hardware.)
