Comment: I have a weird problem with my graphite imac. My Hard Drive went bad - the computer wouldn't see it at all. I bought and installed a new drive. I installed all the system software on the new drive and it worked great. Then I restarted the computer, and it wouldn't find the new drive. Here's the kicker! Everytime I leave the computer alone for 24 hours and come back to it, it loads up fine. If I restart the computer (either immediately or after a couple of hours) it will not find the system folder. The only way it works is if I wait overnight. What in the world is wrong with this computer? The only thing I can think is that it's a freaky motherboard problem. Any ideas?
