If you are still experiencing problems or are un-
able to repair the drive, contact Digidesign
Technical Support for additional assistance.
Using Norton Disk Doctor
Norton Disk Doctor is a third-party application
for diagnosing and repairing drive problems.
Norton Disk Doctor provides more comprehen-
sive coverage of drive problems than Disk First
Aid, and can repair directory structure and file
problems that Disk First Aid cannot repair.
Load Norton Utilities
®
onto one or more of the
drives on your system before you continue with
the following sections. You might want to load
Norton Utilities into the Utilities folder with
Disk First Aid for convenience.
Repairing DigiDrives with Norton Disk
Doctor
To repair a DigiDrive:
1
Open the Norton Utilities folder on your
Digidesign system.
2
Double-click the Norton Utilities icon to start
the application. The Norton Utilities Main
menu appears (Figure 21).

Follow the instructions in the
Using the Norton
Utilities
manual for drive repair and recovery. At-
tempt to fix all of the problems noted by Norton
Disk Doctor as it is running. Follow any special
instructions or recommendations that Norton
Disk Doctor provides.
5
When Norton Disk Doctor is finished, a dialog
box appears. Click Show Report to see a listing
of the problems that were found with the drive,
or click Done to return to the Norton Disk Doc-
tor window.
6
Repeat steps 4 and 5 to make sure the prob-
lems were fixed.

You should perform a custom installation
of the Norton Utilities to load only the Re-

Utilities can cause conflicts with Digidesign
software.
You should run Norton Disk Doctor regu-
larly as a proactive method of avoiding
drive problems.
