[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1355440, member: 46727"] You should never lose those original install disks.... However, all is not lost. Do this: Boot the machine to single user mode: Hold down your command key and S key as soon as you hear the chime. Next, type this in from the command line: /sbin/fsck -fy Follow the prompts and let us know what it comes back and tells you. You may have to run this several times until all errors are cleared.
