Bernadette - I have a 3 day old G4 DP 887 Ghz - just installed all my software (2 days!), ran nortonu tils from a CD to check all is ok - no hard drive visible !! Tried tech tools - all tests ok. (disk warrior won't even start up from a CD)
Still it is 3 days old - I guess technology moves on at a great pace nowadays... Please let me know if you find an answer.
