Backup as much as you can of what ever is important to you. First attempt would be too reformat the drive. When you reformat it tell it to completely erase and write 0's everywhere. This will force the drive to map out bad sectors. This will take a long time; several hours. If it works, you're good to go. Reinstall and put back your files. If it doesn't work, start shopping for a new drive. ...Duane --- At Mon, 9 Oct 2006 03:49:43 +0000, janesprando@comcast.net wrote: >I have a G-4 iMac (the one whose base is half a basketball) and am running >10.3.9.

This is what I have done so far: 1. duplicated my hard drive on to a LaCie external firewire drive using Retrospect. The LaCie starts boots up and it will repair disk permissions. (It keeps repairing the same ones over and over again, like library/colorsync; What's up with that? ) 2. started up in single user mode (it is COMMAND and s key) with these results: diskOs9:I/Oerror invalid key length (4, 10217 Volume check failed 3. Apple Hardware Test (I could not find Loop Mode --- where is it?) Logic Board, Mass storage, Memory, Video Ram: all passed; No hardware problems 4. Tried verifying disk permissions again on the iMac and it froze. 5. Disk Warrior did not complete the test. I stopped it after 20 minutes of doing nothing. It said disk error affects speed or something like that. So I am thinking that I will totally erase the drive and restore from the LaCie. Or does anyone have any other suggestions?

What's the normal >template and what changes might have happened? That's Word. You can always tell which application is asking by looking at the Application Menu next to the Apple menu. This happens when you (inadvertently) change the Normal style in a document. The Normal is the default paragraph that is used by Word for all documents. Generally, you should answer "No" to this dialog. ...Duane From janesprando at comcast.net Sat Oct 21 09:58:32 2006 From: janesprando at comcast.net (janesprando@comcast.net) Date: Sat Oct 21 09:58:39 2006 Subject: [HM] can't print from PowerBook (networked with iMac) Message-ID: <102120061658.13018.453A51B80006BA03000032DA2205886442010B020E9D9F9C0A020E06@comcast.net> A week or so ago I was having a problem with my G4 iMac hard drive running 10.3.9. Many of you made excellent suggestions and it is running well. (I had to reformat the drive, reinstall 10.3 and do the update.) I have an Epson RX600 all in one and had to update that driver as well. I can print fine from the iMac. The probem is my G4 PowerBook, also running 10.3.9. The laptop is networked via an Airport Extreme. I can't print from it now. What do I need to do to get it printing again? Jane From kuestner at macnews.de Sat Oct 21 10:12:11 2006 From: kuestner at macnews.de (B.
