My 11 month old macbook pro has decided that it will not boot.
Last night I installed an apple update as normal (quick time and itunes too I think) and it went to restart, cleared the desktop of all icons and dashboard so only the wallpaper was visible and then.....nothing.
The HD went a bit nuts after a while then calmed down and still nothing. The power adapter did get screaming hot though so I had to unplug it and in the end crash it.
Now it won't get past the grey screen with apple logo and whirring gear.
I have tried starting it in safe mode but get the same thing.
I get the startup tone, then the icon, then the gear, then......nothing.
Can anyone please advise?
