easyya - Try this first:
Try reseting PRAM. Restart computer with the Apple-Option-P-R keys held down.

Then try resetting NVRAM. Restart computer with the Apple-Option-O-F keys held down. If you have an Open Firmware password enter it. At the command prompt type "reset-nvram" and then "reset-all" to reset it.

If this does not work you will need your Operating System disc, look in the software package that came with your MacBook. The question mark means that the computer can't find the operating system. If this does not work, your hard drive may have failed.

Hoping for the best...
