The same thing happened to mine, flashing question mark folder on the screen. Hard drive repairs can cost a lot, however, if you bought your mac sometime around Christmas 2007 you can get a free fix for it. It was something about a faulty drive.
Good luck getting it fixed. I know it sucks to have that happen.
its a bit older then that, i'll ask when i go shopping for a new one

Spending time guessing which device you have yet to brick is just as useful as guessing which grade school teacher clearly didn't think to c()ckslap you upside the head for your run-on sentences.

Ive only ever had 1 hard drive related problem, and it was with my old pos 30gb b/w ipod. The hard drive wouldnt spin, i would get a sad ipod face and whatnot. Surprisingly enough, the solution to it was to take the HD out of the ipod and shake the living piss out of it.
Your problem sounds like the discs are...off their rocker somehow. pineapple if i know what to do.
lmao i'll try this after i try below
