ok, So I bought a hackintosh a whole back from http:/www.mac-clones.com a few months back, and all's been going amazingly well. But literally yesterday I turned it on to find the bios would load up, but only to 'verifying dmi pool data', then it would just sit there and not do anything. I've been inside the bios setup and fiddled with everyting I can think of to do with the hard drive. I really don't want to lose any of my data on the drive - Iwas fiddling with some backups a few days ago on an external drive and had to delete the mac's backup, and then this happens just as I'm booting it up so back it up. I've tried disconecting the external drive, and almost everyting now.
any ideas? You guys always rock with this kind of stuff.
Many thanks,
Pirate
