Computer Not Starting

[MOBOsexual]

I have a MacBook Pro, using bootcamp to run windows 7 home premium. Yesterday, it started wiggin out on me, and I couldnt do anything, so I did a hard restart. I let it sit for a few hours to cool down but still every time I try to turn it on, I get to the screen where I can choose to go to my Mac or Windows OS, and when I choose one, the screen goes black, flashes once all white for a split second, and then nothing happens. Any thoughts? I could really use some help with this right now

My best bet is the boot sector/manager is fucked

Probably a corrupted HDD or Sector that you install your OS onto

What would you suggest then?

Can you tell me if you can boot into any OS? or it doesn't matter if you're booting into windows or OSX, it just borks out.

If the HDD is corrupted, try formatting it. If it fails to format and it still does the error, replace the HDD.

This HDD is less than 6 months old, there's no way it needs work already, I'm careful about viruses and such

Can't get into either

Actually it does sound like your hdd is dead, so here is something people don't know about hdd failure rates, my coworker calls it the bathtub failure rate. If you plot failure rates against time (this in a paper done by google) you find that failures happen either in the beginning 6 months or after 5 years not in between. So if you have a harddrive that fails it either fails in the beginning but if you get it past the 6 month point you can expect it to last until the end of its warrenty or after, so sorry dude you just got a bad luck with harddrive.

Bro bro bro... Dont believe when it needs no work already, if its dead, its his time. dont waste your time trying to recover the HDD and i suggest buying an SSD to boot the OS onto. No matter its <6 Months if its corrupted/dead/bad sector, it remains it is.

So I've just finished trying 3 other hard drives in the laptop, as well as putting my Windows 7 is disc in the drive and starting up to that, and still none of it works. I used a sata connector with my hdd on my dad's computer, and it's just fine, nothing wrong with it, so what would be the next thing wrong with the computer not boring properly? I really need to fix this thing as cheap as possible because I was supposed to sell it to my brother but note I can't

That is uhhhh, wow I hate to say this to you but it sounds like your intel harddrive controller is probably dead, the symptoms you're bringing up sounds like what would happen if the bios CANNOT find the boot sector on a harddrive, ANY harddrive, I'm not an expert on the hardware in a macbook but you might want to start preparing for the worst. Hopefully you still have the warrenty on it.
