Someone please help me!
I know nothing about computer..

It just happened couple nights ago,

I was doing my work with photoshop and

turned off the computer for a night..

then everything got messed up.. the

computer got really really slow, the white

screen with gray apple in the middle and

that spinning thingy on the bottom lasts

for 30 min, then there's welcome screen

(something like welcome to OS X i guess).

but usually there's loading bar, but not

anymore. then it's just blue screen.. mouse

doesn't work, and nothing happens.


now i'm trying to reinstall OS X, but

the installer can't find a destination disk.

i went to disk utility..

the volume is 27.95 GB TOSHIBA,

and under there there's supposed to be

Macintosh HD volume, but it's gray..

it says Macintosh HD is not mounted.

so i went to first aid, verified disk and

repaired disk too, and it said 'keys out of

order.'

i don't have any important file in my

computer so i don't mind erasing everything

in my computer..


is there anyway to fix this problem??


(I'm sorry if what i wrote is just random and doesn't make sense.. but i really don't know anything about computer..)

someone please please help me!
