<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1. Invalid Volume Header</DIV>
<DIV>2. Checking HFS Plus volume</DIV>
<DIV>3. Checking Extents Overflow file</DIV>
<DIV>4. Invalid sibling link</DIV>
<DIV>5. Repairing volume</DIV>
<DIV>Repeats step 1 - 5 twice more</DIV>
<DIV>and then receives:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>ERROR: The underlying task reported failure on exit</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1 HFS Volume checked</DIV>
<DIV> 1 volume could not be repaired because of error</DIV>
<DIV>Repair attempted on 1 volume</DIV>
<DIV> 1 volume could not be repaired</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Does this mean R.I.P. ?</DIV>

<DIV>Hi Folks,<BR><BR>I am in a bind. The other day I was in Microsoft Internet and the Mac Powerbook just went into a loop. I powered it off and attempted to restart. Got nothing but the Apple ant the cirular busy icon contiuosly turning. Tried putting in CD and it will not boot as well, unless I need to do something while it is rebooting.(not that familiar with Mac anymore). Any help would be appreciated.<BR><BR>Regards,<BR>Mickey</DIV></BLOCKQUOTE><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Use the CD & hold the C key to pick it or hold Option to choose from a selection of all available drives.</DIV>

<DIV>If you still can't fix it let us know what OS version you have installed and available bootable CDs/DVDs.</DIV>
