I was in the process of doing a complete reinstall on the this machine because of a broken registry. I got the original grey PowerBook G4 Software Install and Restore CD to run and the Mac OS X Tiger to install. When I started to try and reinstall my other programs from scratch on the specific CDs for them, my CD/DVD will run like it is going to boot them a few times, never boots them on the desktop, and then spits them out without me able to use them. I am not positive that the DVD/CD drive didn't stop working after the updates were installed.
When I ran Dick Utility on the computer, and tried to verify the disk,this is what it said:
Verifying volume HD
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
Checking multi-linked files.
Checking Catalog hierarchy.
%)
Checking Extended Attributes file.
Checking volume bitmap.
Checking volume information.
Volume Header needs minor repair
The volume HD needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair
I was recommended to use Disk Warrior to repair this problem.
Does anyone else have any suggestions to the best way to get my CD/DVD drive working again?
