Actually, in OS 9, I have had good luck with Disk Doctor. It may take multiple runs, each time getting a little further. I may skip Media Check so it concentrates on the Disk Directory. Usually, the hardest thing is to capture the partition, so don't give up. Often, Norton will capture

This may not be your issue. But once the drivers are installed, the printer won't appear in Printer Setup Utility until it is connected and on and selected for the first time. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop

I would also look at the OWC On-the-go mini-Firewire drives. (They come in different connection flavors as do the full size OWC products.) I think other companies put out similar ones. The drive can operate with power from the computer's Firewire port or a separate power adapter (used
