Q: Macbook Pro won't start. Pls help
Hi,
When i turn on my mac ,a white screen with a folder(with a question mark on it) appears.
It flashes on the screen a few times and then the mac shuts itself down.
Does anybody know what this is?

The odds are that you have a failed HDD or a broken connection to it.
Boot the MBP with the OPTION + CONTROL + R keys. You should get a display such as this:
Proceed following the directions and you will be connected to the Apple servers. You should come across a menu such as this:
Select Disk Utility and run Disk Utility>First Aid>Repair. If the disk cannot be repaired, it will have to be replaced. If it can, you can reinstall the original OSX that came with your MBP.
This may be a slow process and you will need a solid Internet connection.
Ciao.
