Hello all, My setup is : Powerbook 1400, 166 mhz, 64 mb ram, mac os 8.1 It started on saturday, when i went to restart and all it would do was quit the finder, and then relaunch. A forced restart solved this, and then it restarted fine the next time. Then, today, I went to launch Corel Draw, and i got an error message along the likes of This program cannot launch, if you moved the application out of the Corel Graphics folder, please move it back, otherwise contact corel technical support. No problem i said because i was not planning on keeping this program anyhow. So i deleted it. But this afternoon, I go into outlook express to check my email, but for some reason all the emails display in plain text, not HTML. So i decide to restart the computer. I then have the same problem listed above and have to force restart it. When it rebooted i went back into outlook express but now everytime I click on an email it unexpectly quits with a type 1 error. I tried replacing my prefs, and identity folder, to no avail. I even tried reinstalling corel graphics and it did not work, so i have the feeling that reinstalling oe would not help the problem. I would appreciate some help because i have the feeling that internet explorer will be next, and then i will lose acess to this site, and webmail. |

Try booting from your Mac OS install or restore CD, and running Disk First Aid on your hard drive. Sounds like your hard drive is slowly going bad.

Yeah, come to think of it, it was making a terrible noise last week, but i forgot about it. I was going to upgrade the HD anyways so its no biggie.
