4. Click Repair to begin testing and repairing the disk.
You cannot repair the startup disk or the disk that is running the
Disk First Aid program, but you can test these disks by clicking
Verify. If the program reveals a problem with either of these disks,
start up the computer from another disk so that you can repair the
damaged disk.
If you want to test and repair another disk, click its icon and then
click Repair.
5. When testing and repair are finished, choose Quit from the File
menu.

If Disk First Aid cannot correct the problem

• Try repairing the disk with Disk First Aid again. Sometimes
repeating the process corrects the problem.
• Use another disk repair or recovery program. Some disk
repair programs let you recover information from a
damaged disk.
• Consult a computer repair specialist for help.
• Once you have recovered all the information you can, erase
(reinitialize) the disk. If initialization does not work, discard
the damaged disk (if it is a floppy disk), or take it to your
Motorola-authorized service provider for repair (if it is a
hard disk).
