Hi All,

Over the past few days, every time I restart my iMac (latest revision--27' fully updated), an odd error message is thrown up. It says;

"The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer."

The box below gives you three options (initialize, eject...and one other which escapes me at the moment).

Thing is--there's no disk in the drive, the message disappears after a minute, and disk utility says that my disks appear to be fine. Other than this issue, my machine appears fine (apart from a propensity to crash playing WoW--strangely, after one such occurrence this message started appearing).

Anyway, I'm at a loss--anyone got any ideas what's causing this and, indeed, what it is?

Cheers!

Eoin
