Hello Joe, It sounds as though there's something seriously wrong with your machine. Have you contacted Apple about it? I assume this is one of the new Minis with no DVD drive and this new Thunderbolt connection? If so, you really should get Apple to look at it.
I can't sort out your hardware problems, but if you get it fixed, you know where to find me for help getting started properly.
