Glad you got it working, luolin! It appears that the difference is that you recently had a hard-drive replacement. While your computer processor is 64-bit capable (that's what the Intel Core 2 Duo indicates), the Tiger operating system when originally installed at the factory by Apple (back in 2007) was probably set to boot in 32-bit mode. That's why it used to work just fine for you. It sounds like when you replaced your hard-drive and OS X was reinstalled that it was setup to boot in 64-bit mode by default. Happy e-reading now that it's working again! Good luck getting your computer setup again. Hard-drive replacements are never fun. At least you have a backup of your files.
