I have a G5 system.
The problem is as follows:
Everything looks normal when I start up the system and all my files are there, but as soon as I try to do anything finder freezes and the spinning wheel of doom takes over. There is nothing I can do but restart the computer.
This happens repeatedly.
I figure that I need to reinstall OS X but is there an easier solution?
If I do have to reinstall OS X can I do this without losing all my programs and stored information? Another problem is it won't let me open the disc tray.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
David
