Hello! the first thing i noticed wrong with my computer was that it wouldnt recognize external drives however it does see my flash drive. i then was trying to burn a dvd using Toast and when I try to burn it opens the encoding dialog box but doesnt do anything after that. I tryed using disk utility to fix both these problems after looking them up but when i try to run the permissions repair it starts but just sits in the reading permissions database phase and doesnt do anything else. the same thing happens if i try to use "verify disk permissions" instead.
thanks in advance for any help!
