Earlier today I wrote about frequent crashes since installing new memory and new hard drive. I didn't get a chance to open up the machine and following Joshuha's suggestion of resetting the CUDA switch or Lincoln's suggestion of taking out and testing new memory. That will have to be tomorrow.
Tonight I suddenly have a new problem. One of my disk partitions is not being recognized. Earlier, it showed up on the desktop but was blinking and a message kept popping up saying it couldn't be opened because it couldn't be found. This message came up even though I was not attempting to access this drive partition or anything on it. I scanned that partition with Norton's Disk Doctor and it found no problems. I scanned my partition that holds the system folder and it found minor errors in programs that were not connected to the troubled partition. The minor errors, that it fixed were connected to photoshop. The bad partition has my web software. This was really bad because I couldn't go online or send e-mail to search for an answer. I went back to Norton's and did a volume recover that set it back to yesterday's status. I went to disk first-aid. It showed the bad partition as being okay. It froze on doing the system volume. I restarted and zapped the pram. Disk first aid automatically scanned and repaired on start-up, because of the freeze. The bad partition is here now. But will it stay here? Was zapping the pram enough? It wasn't the volume recover that did it, because I still got error after that, which is why I tried disk first-aid. Please give me suggestions. Thanks.
