[QUOTE="Brown Study, post: 378735, member: 3889"] Try the ol' single-user startup and fsck -fy trick. Start the computer but hold down the Command and "S" key. When the white type on a black background stops flowing, type fsck -fy (include the space), at the cursor that will be at the bottom, then hit return. This is the same as running Disk Utility from the DVD. If the results say the disk was modifed but now "appears OK," run it again, and repeatedly until the message does not say anything about the disk being modified. Then type reboot and hit return.
