[QUOTE="goodolebwinches, post: 9069"] I've got an older machine that kind of did something like that, but it stopped after using a 3rd party disk utiility. You might want to try merely running the "disk utility" included in OSX. I don't know if your situtation is the same as mine, but here is what you can try. 1. On the menu bar at top go over to the right to "GO". 2. Go down that menu to "Applications". 3. Double click "Utilities". 4. Double click "Disk Utiltiy". 5. Highlight your hard drive's name on the left of the menu, then click "First Aid". 6. Click "Verify Disk Permissions". 7. Follow up with a click on "Repair Permissions". Again, I don't know if you've got the same situation that I have. If you see no affect after going through this process, then you may want to look into buying a 3rd party utility like DISKWARRIOR, DRIVE 10, or TECHTOOL PRO. [/QUOTE]
