Ok there seems to be a Disk Utility,,,did you mess with it yet???
Run Disk Utility:
If none of the previous suggestions worked, then it is time to move on to OS Xâ??s built in disk utility. Go hunt around for your OS X install disk and pop it in your drive. Then restart your computer holding down the â??Câ? key until your machine boots from the disk and not your harddrive. Once here a screen will appear asking you to begin installing OS X, you donâ??t want to do this. Instead, look in the menu and find the Disk Utility option and click on it. This quits the installation and opens up the Disk Utility interface. Once here you will want to click on the repair disk option and watch as OS X is fixed before your very eyes!

I didn't think so either. I didn't lose anything saved on the hard drive, i now have default everything though. Even firefox wasn't recognized at first. Plus when I clicked on aim it gave me the set up scree again. All the factory aplications are. It isn't that big of a deal considering I didn't loose anything important, but kind of annoying I don't know why it happened.
The only thing I can think of is I was booting it up and the plug came out in the middle of boot up. I still don't understand why it would have done this though.

punching my walls is a bad idea, our house is a really old house... we don't have hollow walls, behind the sheet rock is solid wood... you can't put a hole in a wall in my house without like a sledge hammer or some shit... i've broken my hand many times punching the wall lol....
'sides, i usually punch my monitor and it's a champ... i've hit it nuuuuuuumerous times, really damn hard and it still hasn't had the slightest flaw or breakage... lol...
however, my keyboards rarely hold up... i've done good so far, i haven't hit this keyboard yet... (i've gotten angry and pressed keys alot harder then i really should, but i haven't punched it yet lol)
man, there should be a law against heavily stressed, overly angry people being able to own a comp.... o.0 sometimes it gets me so angry i can feel the damned veins in my neck and head throbbing...
wont' be a problem when i get my new comp (gonna be ordered no later then the 16th of this month as that's the latest our income money will be in the bank) CompUSA.com: HP Pavilion m7760n TV Minitower - RK570AA#ABA - Computers » Desktop PCs
bleh, now i'm upset... just in the last 2 days they've taken out the one with windows xp, and now they only have it (same computer tho) with windows vista... i didn't want vista, cuz i know it's going to fucking suck....
