I'm not sure quite where I went wrong initially, but then I accidentally cleaned out some files from my card and everything quickly went downhill.

My camera appeared not to turn on. I reformatted the CF card to FAT on my Mac, and my camera would turn on now, and the lens autofocuses when I immediately turn it on, but then it doesn't work on command afterward. The LCD screen on the back doesn't turn on, but when I shut off the camera, the LCD screen turns on to tell me it's cleaning the sensor.

I've removed the battery for the clock display, and replaced it with fresh batteries, different lenses, everything. I think I messed up something with the ML software, because the recovery auto executes don't seem to be functioning. Does anyone else have some things to try to save it?!?! Am I looking at a hefty bill now?

edit:
So I was able to get it partly working again, Camera turned on initially in [CA], and then I took some photos and really quickly hit the menu. That, for whatever reason, caused the LCD to work for a little bit. I was finally able to reinstall the Canon operating system, but it seemed that dregs of ML were still there. I reinstalled ML, but it's not fully functioning still. Do I need to post the LOGs here? My goal is to get all functionality restored! I still can't auto-focus on command, and there is no live view on the LCD.
