3 things to try: 1. download the combo update for 10.3.7 and reinstall 2. run fsck from the startup details here: <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214> 3. use the install CD, don¹t install. select disk utility from the pull-down menu run repair disk from the application run repair permissions after disk repair done.
