[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1197030, member: 24098"] I would tend to agree here, which is notable because I can't think of the last time I recommended someone do a clean install on these forums. But something is definitely not right there as that machine should be more than up to the task of running the iLife suite. If it's been like this since it came out of the box, there is a major issue. I would start with a clean install. If that doesn't take care of the issue, I'd suspect you have a bad hard drive as well - and as chas noted, it should be a relatively inexpensive/easy fix. With Apple apparently now using Toshiba hard drives, it wouldn't surprise me to have a flaky one straight from the factory (which is why my brand new MacBook Pro is getting a new hard drive this week).
