[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1127624, member: 42497"] Boot from the install DVD, and go to Utilities, Disk Utility and run Repair Disk and see what is reported, or if that shows up all okay, then suspect the optical drive is cactus and as iMacs use the minaturised version from a laptop, strongly suspect the optical drive. Somewhere you have major problems and it is hardware. [/QUOTE]
