Leopard Cache Cleanear--> now OS X wont startup !! [help]

[Chanabra]

Hello, I have a 2.16 GHz MBP C2D.

Yesterday I installed and ran Leopard Cache Cleaner.

This morning my computer is stuck at the gray apple logo and the spinning gear.

I don't know what to do. I tried reseting some ram thing with command option p r and I cannot seem to get my computer started in safe mode...

Comments/Suggestions,

How long do you wait before restarting? Give it a while, my Mini took near 20min once.

Hope this helps.

That's exactly my problem.

I've reset the VRAM doing the control-option-p-r thing..
I've run apple hardware test..
It won't boot in safe mode..

First of all it boggles my mind why users are obsessed with system maintenance utilities. The only issue I've ever encountered to date is having to rebuild my LaunchServices database. Rant aside I say a prayer and make a backup before even running said utility.

Boot off of your Leopard DVD and run a disk repair, run fsck in single user mode if you can, restore for a last known good Time Machine backup.

As always, have a backup.

If you have already tried resetting the PRAM, try an SMC reset.
