Mac Overclocking...? (just an idea)

hm_murdock:
Is it the original Apple OEM install?

if so, just bust you discs out and do an "Archive and Install"... do not save user settings.

That'll wipe out OS X and any bad settings, but save all your data and apps

Your previous Home folder will be in
/Previous Systems/Home/

I looked around a bit, and if you're interested in technically nerdy stuff (who isn't?) you can get some good information about using open-firmware from kernelthread.com and the NetBSD website. Good places to look would be the device tree, but I wonder what to do after that....

Praxis:
I'd suggest permissions repair with disk utility.  Then reboot holding the S key, and at the UNIX prompt type:  
fsck -y -f

And do it over and over until it says no problems found.

Viola, disk errors repaired, permissions repaired, no more problems.  Hopefully.

Nah, I got bad clusters on my Linux router machine once. You can run fsck all you want, some files are just plain gone
