|
|
I have to re-start two or three time my mac mini to this boot. First appear the apple and a spinning wheel, then a blank screen and here stay for ever. I have to power cycle 2 or 3 times and then this appear my password screens. Any recommendation? _________________ Mac Mini - 2.3GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
