Could be a problem with the hard drive. If you have the original Install DVD, insert that and boot up while pressing the C key. Then run Disk Utility from the menu and see if you can verify and repair your hard drive.
Very many thanks for your help, Yes thats done the trick and corrected everything again Many Thanks
Make a backup of your data. Your hard disk may be on the way out. If you use something like Carbon Copy Cloner you can clone your drive to a new one.
