I had an iMac DVSE that was running a bit slow. Most likely an extension or fragmentation problem, eh? Well, my father attempted to run an old version of Norton Utilities (I wanna say 3.1) on it, and now the hard drive is unrecognizable even if the machine is started up from the Restore CD. I don't want to simply reformat the drive, since there is vital data on there (maybe my father will now start a regular backup schedule, as I've recommended for a while... what else is the CD-RW for?). Anybody else ever run into this kind of thing? Do I have any hope other than sending the thing to DriveSavers?
