Run out and buy MacZap.  When it comes, throw out MacZap Tools and MacZap Copy
(with the user-interfaces from hell), but run MacZap Recover HFS.  It's the
ONLY thing that helped my XP20, which had similar problems a while ago.  I got
it from The Saving Zone (800-248-0800) for about $40 and have never regretted
it.  I don't know what it does, I don't know how it does it, but it WORKS!

P.S.  Let us know if this helps; I'm sure others will have/have had similar
problems with their HDs.
