Good morning all, Yesterday I ran the latest apple update (iPhoto and Font) on my iMac and MacBook Pro, the iMac update went OK but I was called away before the MacBook Pro (Intel OS 10.6.7) had finished so I left it running, on my return I found that I had neglected to connect the external power to the thing and the battery was all but totally discharged, when I tried to shut it down I got endless error messages saying that certain files could not be accessed (didn't think to write it down) and had to force the shut down via the start button. the consequence of all this is that it wont boot up past the grey screen and the ever rotating wheel.
Zapping the Pram had no effect. DiskWarrior 4.3 reported the following: • 5 files had a directory entry with an incorrect text encoding value that was repaired. • 5 folders had a directory entry with an incorrect custom icon flag that was repaired. • Incorrect values in the Volume Information were repaired. A second DW scan came up with No Errors. Booted ut holding down the Command and S keys. Ran the FSCK -FY this showed No Errors. Checked the Volume Structure, File Structure and Surface Scan for bad block using TechTools Pro 5.0.7, No Errors found. Looking at it in Target mode everything looks to be in order. Can anyone suggest something else I can try before I resort to reinstalling the system please.
