Hi Wilton Just to clarify in case it helps. DiskWarrior cannot work on the Disk (partition) it resides on. Nor can it work on the Disk you boot from. But can fix any other mounted disk. Using CMD+OPT+shift+Delete �immediately� after the startup chime should prevent booting from the Hard disk and force your Mac to search for an alternate. Command+Option is the keystroke for rebuilding the Desktop database. Maybe this helps? All the best Brian -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
