instructions on reinitializing a floppy disk, see the “Disks” topic of
Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu. For instructions on
reinitializing a hard disk, see the next section, “Initializing a Hard Disk.”
If initialization doesn’t work, discard the damaged disk (if it’s a floppy
disk), or take it to your Apple-authorized service provider for repair (if it’s
a hard disk). Bring theMacintosh Performa CD(which you received with
your computer) with you to the service provider.
