I had the same problem with my 7600 604e/233 and twin 2gb drives. It's a bad hard drive. Just replace it and go on with your life - I don't know if your drive is repairable, but I wasted far too much time trying every other solution in the world with mine, including rebuilding/reinstalling the system repeatedly, playing with the ram, pram/pram battery, Norton, TechTool, DiskWarrior, etc., etc. -- ---------- John McKay, Military Historian - Regimental Historian: 506th ABN INF Association Personal Page: http://HistoryAddict.com Georgia Dept. of Defense, Peach State STARBASE Lead Teacher Office: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work page: http://www.jops.ang.af.mil/starbase.htm -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
