I have a macbook 13in and last night I went to put it to sleep and it froze. I let it sit for about an hour and nothing changed. I shut it down using the power button and now when I try to turn it on it makes the wake up sound and just stays on a grey screen. After a while a little file picture with a question mark shows up. Any info would be great.
 
Sounds like your harddrive died if it's within warranty they'll fix it for you but you will have lost everything on that drive unless you backed up

I can feel the hard drive spinning. I bought it used and don't have a startup disk. Where would I get a startup disk for tiger.
