I have been unhappy with the performance of my iMac G5 for a while
and decided to run DiskWarrior over it. I gets about halfway
through the Step 5 of the Rebuild Directory sequence and stalls.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem may be and
appropriate action I can take please.
Hello Adrian,
What Version of DiskWarrior are you using, are you using the latest
version for your OS? You don't say if you are using Leopard.
DW 4.1.1 is latest version.
It's possible that you have a bad spot (bad sector) on the hard drive.
DW only fixes the directory. It does not fix other disk-related
problems that may be repaired by Disk Utility or TechTool Pro.
Have you checked the SMART status of your drive with DiskWarrior?
Cheers,
Ronni
