Lines: 18 Dear Netter: I need some advices about my Macintosh IIcx's 40M HD. It's about 3 days ago (July 28) when I turned on my Mac. The Hard disk had no reponse. I tried to reboot it again but no use. I thought my HD was crashed. So I called apple to find out where I could have my MAC repaired. I almost had a heart attack when I thought that I will lose all my valuable files. Last night when I planed to pack my MAC, I boot it up again and IT WORKS. I then use HD SC setup utility to run a test of my HD. It passed the test OK. The advices I need is that what should I do now? Is this situation normal? Has anyone out there experience things like this? Does this mean that there is still some problem of my HD and I should have someone take a look? However if this is the case what is the problem now? Any information is heartly appreciated. Please e-mail to my address. Thanks again. Shu-Ping Chang (schang@cs.umn.edu)
