Hello sirs... I need your opinion/help on this... I just recently restarted my macbook (black) and all of a sudden it got stuck with the apple logo and the radial icon turning underneath the logo. What could be wrong? Is there anyway I can override this? Thank you very much! Lookin' forward to your replies.
Re: Help for the Black Macbook have you tried inserting your recovery disc, boot from it and repair disk permission? you can also try booting in verbose (command + v) and see where it hangs on boot up.
thanks for the reply sirs I tried verbose (cmd+v). It got stock on (vmnet: netif-vmnet8: Adding protocol 2) What could've gotten wrong? THANKS! Where do i get the recovery disk? thanks!
try inserting your installation disk and boot from it, then repair disk permissions. try to boot on safe mode and see what happens. If you are successful then chances are it would be okay the next time you boot. if it still fails, try mad mac's suggestion. It might be a ram problem because the same thing happened to my macbook black before. It happened so many times until I had to replace one ram, which was defective.
if i'm not mistaken (please correct me if i'm wrong) this vmnet came from vmware fusion - so maybe something went wrong about that app when you install it. as for the recovery disc, it's included in your macbook package (2 disc), just insert disc 1 and press C or alt and boot from it. this a good idea too if you dont have the recovery disc lying around, if your mac boots into safe mode, repair disk permission and uninstall vmware then just reinstall it again after booting normally
