Jerry, the same thing happens. Also tried leaving the original (bad) drive and taking out the other one. No change.
Lee, Disk Warrior does do a S.M.A.R.T. test and it said there was a failure or an imminent failure. But that does not explain why only the Disk Warrior CD will boot and not the Tiger DVD or the OS 9 Software Install and Software Restore CDs won't boot. I can accept that the drive is bad, but not the rest of the symptoms. I don't want to buy another hard drive until I figure out why I can't get anything except Disk Warrior to run, do I?
