[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 773825, member: 56231"] You can run Disk Utility from Disk 1 of the original disks that came with your iMac. If you don't have those, a retail Leopard install disk is necessary. From Disk Utility, you can verify the HD, and repair if necessary. You can also verify and repair permissions, but the latter is not the likely cause of the problem. Something else you can do is check the RAM. Pull the modules out and swap them over, making sure they're re-seated securely. If Disk Repair is required, you should not lose any of your data, but I would suggest you start backing up valuable files a.s.a.p. [/QUOTE]
