I hate to belabaor a topic that has already been discussed before, particularly when people have their own reasons but I noticed that Norton's Disk Doctor was not looked upon favorably. But every now and then, for some odd reason, your HD will not mount. I'm sure this has happened at least once to you. We just never know why this happens but it does.
I just had this problem with my 20 gig SCSI drive (I also have a 40 gig IDE with 3 partions). It just would not mount, even after discounting the drive and reboooting which often works. Norton's Disk Dr (6 in this case), was the only one of the three that would find my missing scsi HD, repair it and mount it. I'm really not sure that Disk Warrior can even look for it. Tech Tool Pro 3 couldn't find it. I would say from my experience in the past, Norton's Disk Dr generally came through for this particular problem where others have failed. I actually cannot say Disk Warrior ever helped me. Sometimes I'm not even sure what it does. I was having some problems with my scsi drive and did use Disk Warrior to bebuild but some time after that, it wouldn't mount. I probably have other issues. I have reasons to believe that 10.2.3 did something odd to my scsi drives but that's another story which I really am not sure about. But I do agree about not using any other programs Norton's make, except their virus programs for PC. I really don't have any opinion regarding their disk optimizer either way. I've personally never had any bad results from it but then I rarely use it. ===== __________________________________________ alternate e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sig: Specs: Beige G3 DT/466mhz, OS 9.2.2 & 10.2 __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
