Hi lately my mac has been taking about 2-3 minutes to boot up and sometimes when I turn my mac on it will just stay at the white screen with the apple logo and loading circle underneath it forever and I have to to turn my mac off then back on for it to be able to boot. I have also been getting a lot of spinning beach balls of death. I have the early 2011 15" Macbook Pro with Mac OS X Lion
10.7.1
I have had to use the disk utility on my OS X install DVD several times to repair the hd since I got this mac due to it not booting. Today I verified my hd again and got this.
Disk Utility started.
