Thanks Natalia for your reply.

Will try to get a CD from Apple Store either tomorrow or Monday...

If the hard drive update showed up in OSX's Software Update then I did it as I've installed all the updates that show up in Software Update...otherwise no...

Any comments on the output from the Verbose Startup? Spent a lot of time copying that text from my screen by hand and then typing it into email...;-)

Thanks!

Mark

Did you upgraded the hard disk firmware as shown in OS X Software
Update?
