keplenk Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Hi all, Greetings for the makers and people of this great site!! I have a very big problem and I need your help. I have a mac book and it has Leopard 10.5.2 on it. When I first got my macbook it had Tiger. I then purchased a retail version of Leopard and CLEAN reinstalled Leopard on it. Fortunately, everything went fine and installed smoothly. I was using it for 2 months already and it had no problems at all. However, 2 days ago, I just did a software update .. the software update contained 10 updates .. I didn't read them .. I just did the update. Now, when I turn on my macbook, I just see a blue screen and my mouse hovering. It doesn't push to the login screen (where I put my password) I waited for 2 hours already and it was just sitting on that blue screen. I tried to hard reboot .. it all did the same thing. Just blue screen and mouse pointer. I tried to boot to safe mode, verbose and it all does the same thing. Some people said that the graphics update could have caused this problem. Since I did not read the updates, I'm not sure if the gfx update was there. This is my companies accounting notebook .. I don't have warranty with apple anymore. I can't seem to find any solution anywhere!! I need your help .. my job is at steak here ... Please .... *I wish I could go for firewire to firewire .. but I dont have any other macs to use* Are there any kext files I need to delete? PS: I can boot to single user mode Thank you so much.

Rufus T. Firefly Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 If it was the companies computer why didn't you read the updates? Careless in my opinion. Mostly likely it was the graphics update, try to boot into safe mode (hold down shift when you hear the sound) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
