Hi everyone,

I have a 2008 2,4 MBP and I have a problem with it. I was using snow leopard and everything was going fine for a few months. Then suddenly, it froze on the desktop at the opening. After few minutes, and command+ctrl+Shift+esc, and a few prayers it sometimes came ok.

I got tired of that and decided to format my hard drive and reinstall osx. I had to do it 3 times before it worked. Then I installed the updates and BANG! New problem! Now it was booting for 6 minutes before I see the desktop.

I reinstalled it again and the same thing happened.

I've decided to install snow leopard and I got my desktop a bit faster but the keyboard isn't responding.

I've reinstalled leopard and now I'm stuck on a slow boot. When the desktop opens, everything works fine except that when I close my screen panel, the computer goes to sleep and I have to turn it off manually and wait for another 6 minutes.

Here are the information I get from the consol at the opening.

10-12-14 19:16:58 com.apple.launchctl.System[2] launchctl: Please convert the following to launchd: /etc/mach_init.d/dashboardadvisoryd.plist

Any idea?

Please help!:(

try booting in verbose mode to see what it hangs at
just hold CMD+V before the apple logo pops up
 
Just tried... everything seemed to be ok and then the blue screen appears...for 5 minutes!
 
I've solve that thing earlier.... thanks! The console is what I have before I configure anything!
