Hi Joe, |
| 27 |
Thanks very much for the answer. In my case it looks like I'm sorry |
| 28 |
I woke you up. I tried the most recent 2009 CD as well as the 2007 CD |
| 29 |
I built the machine with the first time. Looks like this Mac Mini has |
| 30 |
gone down hard - bad disk at least, possibly bad memory. I'm not sure |

Anyway, I appreciate the answer and wish you all the best. Thanks |
| 34 |
for your efforts. |

Cheers, |
