I just did used the disk utility on the macos cds to verify my hdd and it came up with an error and told me a repair was required. so i selected the repair option , and later it came up with an error "underlying task failure" and then "1 HFS volume checked - 1 volume could not be repaired...
i held the power button to shut off my computer because it was lagging badly. upon my start up of my computer i received a folder with a question mark in the center blinking icon (after a little delay).
i need to get this sucker up and running. i have some imporrtant information on it...
