In 21 years I've never had a problem that Disk Utility couldn't fix...until now. I get the following message even when I start up from the install disk. Although it mustn't  be a serious problem if my son can play WOW for 8 hours a day, are there any suggestions out there to fix the disk (aside from getting a new 24" iMAC)?
