Need: 		Help! Help! Help!

Patient: 	my XP* 40 (with about 30M stuff on it)

Symptoms:   	(1)  Doesn't always boot properly.
		(2)  Starting applications and copying files sometimes takes
		     an unexpectedly long period of time.  
		(3)  DiskAid cannot recognize it, it keeps declaring that 
		     "this is not an HFS volume". 

Diagnosis:	The directory is damaged. (Am I right ???) 

Cure #1:	DiskExpress.

Result:		DiskExpress didn't help.

Cure #2:	Rebuild DeskTop.

Result:		Didn't work.

THE REAL Cure:	???

P.S.		I'd like to fix my XP* 40 without reinitializing it.
