[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1765461, member: 42497"] G'day and welcome to the forums. Try running Lion Recovery over the hard drive. You cannot repair a drive you are booted from and Recovery will do the job better. Keep in mind this is a ten year old computer and the graphics card, with only 256MB of DDR3 memory, may not be up to slide show etc. Just ignore those SUID file reports in Repair Pwermissions.
