[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1611475, member: 46727"] Usually when a message is received that the disk needs repairing, chances are good that it means the disk needs to be replaced. Of course the repair should be attempted first but definitely be prepared to change it out for a new one. To answer your question about possibly destroying Windows, a repair should not harm Windows. Regarding making a backup - if you can't access the drive, it's too late to try to make a backup. Anyway, we need more info: Which Mac, year and model? What version of OS X? [/QUOTE]
