[QUOTE="Ind3lible, post: 140242, member: 7530"] Well I picked up the hard drive adapter and hooked up the 2.5 HD to a G4. The G4 recognizes the drive and I can see the folder I need to delete but it says it is a read only drive so I cannot get rid of the damn folder. When I put the folder in the windows folder it did not write over any other files. Soooo I believe that if I take this folder out I will able to boot up normally...hopefully. He's not that mad about it. Been joking about it mainly. A co-worker and I were joking about him having KCeasy on the pc and it having so much adware and spyware..which it did(TONS). He's a mac guy as well. Unfortunately he set up this pc to retrieve his 2way messages from his phone which is the main reason I need to get it back up. So as of now I have 2 options. I can either backup everything in a folder onto the mac drive. Do a system restore on the laptop and put the backed up files back in.....or I can try connecting the adapter to my pc at home and hope I'm able to delete that 1 damn folder then. Too bad I just can't do this with the mac. I would be fuckin done now. Thanks for all of your comments and wish me luck. [/QUOTE]
