[QUOTE="shambock, post: 1018349, member: 147567"] Hi all. Tried SAFE MODE time and time again but it just wasn't working. I managed to do a fresh install of Leopard. It took about 9 hours to install. Very slow. Desktop is up and running but is extremely slow. Keeps lagging all the time. Pretty impossible to use. I purchased Disk Warrior and tried it just now. No luck. This is the message I'm getting: [I]DiskWarrior has successfully built a new directory for the disk named "MacintoshHD". The new directory cannot replace the original directory because of a disk malfunction"[/I] Really don't know what else to do or try. Gonna have to take it to Genius Bar I suppose. :[ [/QUOTE]
