Yes I'm all backed up. Don't be sorry, I'm actually glad it's just the HD and not something that I couldn't fix. It also gave me a reson to upgrade to a larger drive. 😀

Installing that drive was 2 hours of intense work! 😱 But well worth it. If I had to do it over again I could probably do it in 40 MInutes. Now my baby is running like a champ. I want to thank everyone on this thread for all your help, I wouln't have done it without you. 🙂

dmw007- Good luck finding another flying powerbook. 😛
