Hallo,
I have an imac g3, 400 Mhz running os 9.1. Last week it started saying: problems with harddisk, data may be getting lost. I installed 9.1 again. Same harddisk problems. Next I updated firmware and reinstalled a clean os 9.1. Again harddisk problems. especially when reading from CD. I used another mac that I connected by firewire with the imac and inserted a CD in the other macs drive. Again the harddisk of the imac crashed.
First of all I doubt is this a hardware or a software problem. Could it be a bad harddisk?
