You may be having a corrupted NVRAM. Issue the command 'test memory' and check the status of NVRAM. If it failed the test, try write erase and if that doesn't help hardware replacement may be your only option.

was thinking the same thing. fixed though, issued and erase startup and that fixed it. finally, something actually went easy huh..its so strange how things can go so horribly wrong sometimes....

thanks though
