Burned the cd of drivers, mac book pro wont let me partition, getting this message "This disk cannot be partitioned because verification failed. Check disk utility" Ran Disk Utility, verified and repaired, still not working. Did get this message in Disk Utility before repairing..."HFS Volume 1 Node structure." Any thoughts aside from reformatting and trying again?


Regards,
John
