Thank you to Daniel & Robert for their suggestions, unfortunately the
problem still exists. I have moved the HD in question to another
computer where it was able to be seen and examined by the Disk
Utility as having no faults yet when placed back in it's home
computer it is not being seen when booted from CD and will not allow
computer to boot at all when booting up from start up HD. Any other
suggestions gratefully appreciated.
Regards
Clive
and if you cannot boot from CD by starting with C key held down ,
Try powering up with Option key held down until you get some options
on your screen

Could some one point me in the right direction, G4 500AGP OS 9.2.2
starts up fine when the HD with the OS only is connected when I
add 80GB slave HD it will not start up all I get is a mac face
inside a folder. These two HD have co-habitated for a least 2
years without a spate, then today a mouse failed and crashed the
computer that brought me to my present desperation.
