Hello Dan & thread readers... I've used DiskWarrior for OS9 for many years, and now in OSX for about a year. In fact, when I switched-over to OSX, one of the first things I did was buy DiskWarrior for OSX. I needed my 'blankie'. :-) I don't know if this will help, but I'm using an MDD 1.25 FW400 2GB RAM with OSX 3.9...and it would be the first thing I would do if I had some kind of unusual system occurance. I run it about once a month, just to tidy things up. Anyone else using DiskWarrior in OSX? Would you use it in this situation? jonny /// >Try emptying caches.
