Hello All, I had resigned myself to being unable to fix the unknown problem ... Startup Disk empty and it will not start up from the Install CD when I may have accidentally discovered the problem. I went into the HD with the System Folder in it and wanted to rename some of the folders I was using for music to prevent redundancy ... well lo and behold it will not let me rename the folders ... seems that the HD is locked and I do NOT know how it happened or how to unlock it.
