Sorry, I lost my adress book. Please route this message to Steve Pietrovicz (?). You're right… First a programm crashed and then I rebooted the system. After that I got the "VALIDATING" message. The problem was that the message never disapears (I gave the computer a whole night to validate the disk!). Is there any possibility or utility that can help in such a situation? After that I want to reinstall the software using "PREP", but I had the same problem as you – the utility was'nt able to "reformat" the disk… What can I do in such a situation?
