Photoshop could not spool a scan to disk on my PowerComputing Powerwave, OS 9.1. I use this machine as a slave to my scanners and thus keep few utilities on the paltry 1 gig drive. I tried to install TechTool and Norton, and both told me they could not complete the install due to bad blocks. I loaded my Norton Utilities 5.0 disk and booted from it and ran disk doctor. It get to where the test appeared complete and then hung for 1/2 hour (cursor moved slowly and spastically, but stopped spinning and clock stayed at same time) before I forced quit. Booted again from HD, but Photoshop, which is in the startup folder took 5 mins to load. Disk First Aid says the disk is okay. How can I get past this bottleneck to actually run a disk repair program? On disk I have Disk Doctor 5.0, and Tech Tool 2.5. I have more current versions for each of these, but installers only, not on a CD for startup. Todd -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
