One thought, I've seen several iBooks where the cooling fan quit running, and the HD overheated and got bad. If you don't hear or feel the fan running, it's possible you need a new fan? Normally, data can be salvaged off an overheated HD by letting it cool and then transferring the data as fast as possible, or using an external air source to cool the HD by blowing air into the laptop. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Low End Mac's G-Books list, a group for those using G3 iBooks and PowerBooks (we run a separate list for G4 'Books).
