Re: [1st] Hard Disk Problem
That software might work. Unfortunately, I would need version 2.1 or similar, as the most recent version (3) requires OS X, and I only have 9.1. Does anybody have a copy of Disk Warrior 2.1 handy?

Re: [1st] Hard Disk Problem
I just bought DW a month ago, and I recovered, even tho I only had 8.6 installed, since the disc with 9.2 was the one that crashed. I think it was 3 (the disk doesn't say which version) the DW CD has the earlier version on it...it shows up when the CD is inserted. Astrid That software might work.

Re: [1st] Hard Disk Problem
Due to the lack of response, I am beginning to believe that the data on the hard disk is unrecoverable. So, I think I will reinitialize soon. However, can anyone help me recover some of the software that I had on the drive? There was a lot of stuff that I will probably never be able to find again, but the biggest thing I'd like back is Office (I think I had version 5.2.1 or something like that). I had all the disk images on the hard drive, and was going to make pysical copies when the catastrope occurred. I will be more careful with older software from now on, and will make backup copies of important software.

[1st] Hard Disk Problem
I have a PowerMac 6100/66 with a G3/266 upgrade and OS 9.1, that I use as a master fileserver and research machine while I'm working on my other, older Macs. I have a couple hundred megabytes of software on there that I'd rather not loose (a lot of software when we're talking system 6 and 7). Recently, being the complete idiot I am, I ran an older version of Norton utilities on the harddrive and it fixed it for me. Unfortunately, this older version of Norton thinks HFS+ is an error that needs to be fixed. And, it did just that. Now, I have to boot from the CD or a floppy, and I get an error -127 when I try and mount my hard disk using Drive Setup. Is there a way I can at least get to my files to copy them safely somewhere else before having to re-initialize? It would not be the end of the world if I could not recover those files, but it would absolutely suck because the original drives/disks that some of the software came on are gone or broken. Any help in recovering these files would be appreciated. I have another Mac (albeit an SE/30) with the same size hard drive that I can transfer everything via Network to, but I need to be able to access the files on the PowerMac first. -- 1st-PowerMacs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: [1st] Hard Disk Problem
Dear Noderaser, If you boot from the OS9.1 cd that becomes your startup hard drive. You will see the OS9.1 as your new system. The hard drive icon will be on the desktop also. Click on the icon to open it. It will have the applications, documents, and other folders on it. There is a previous system folder with all the control panels and preferences etc. from the previous setup in there also. You then can take the third party preferences etc. from the previous system folder and transfer them to the new system folder so you can use your third party apps etc. I hope this works for you. I am not responsible for any lose of data. Take this advice at your own risk, although it works for me.

Re: [1st] Hard Disk Problem
Dear Noderaser, Please re-read this. If you boot from the OS9.1 cd then INSTALL it. After you install it and restart it click on the hard drive icon to open the hard drive. There are your old folders and a NEW system folder. Note: There is a previous system folder with the old finder and all the old control panels and preferences etc. (from the previous installation). In this folder are your third party apps etc. Transfer them to the new system folder in the appropriate places.I hope this works for you. Again, do this at your own risk. Good Luck. You then can take the third party preferences etc. from the previous system folder and transfer them to the new system folder so you can use your third party apps etc. I hope this works for you. I am not responsible for any lose of data. Take this advice at your own risk, although it works for me.
