[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Hard Drive Help Needed!!

bitting-douglas@cs.yale.edu (Douglas Bitting) (03/24/91)

Argh!  I don't get it.  It's bad enough that one has to come back from warm
southern florida to cold and rainy New Haven, CT; does it really have to get
worse?  Apparently so. :-(

Well, here's the scoop: I turned on my computer and my HD (Internal... the one
that came w/ my SE) wouldn't boot.  It would spin (just like you would expect
it to), but it wouldn't boot.  I tried to use MacTools Deluxe's 'Rescue' to no
avail (it wouldn't find the HD).  So, I decided that I would just format the
bloody thing and restore the files off of a recent backup.  Well... that didn't
work either.  Apple's Hard Drive formatter tells me that it can't find a
suitable SCSI device to format.  *sigh*  Any ideas???

Any and all help would be *greatly* appreciated.  Please respond by email as it
is sometimes difficult to wade through all the messages here.
