I used holding down "T" button and connected another mac. and erased the HD but it is still the same. It doesnt see own HD and cant install from mac os dvd. gives me only kernel errors. i ve also reset efi by holding down power button but no hope :(
 
1 hour ago i pluged my mac to another mac and install to my mac's HD 10.5 osx via another mac. and now when i open it still the kernel error page. only good thing is that i can see the HD in boot page now. still no solution.
 
Hi noicant!
Have you tried other OS discs - like a linux live cd?

I think there are three possible options:
1) Your hard disk is corrupted -> try to replace it
2) Your logicboard is defect somehow -> go to an apple service provider

If I were you, I would test the S.M.A.R.T. status of my hdd first...
If you're in doubt how to do that ask back here.

Good luck.
 
Is there a chance you messed up the original apple firmware?

I'm not sure if your model is listed here or if this would even work, but..., maybe manually reflashing the firmware on the macbook pro might fix it? I think these may be updates so they may not even work.

just a thought

With the snow leopard disk in have you tried holding the "C" key on start up?
