I guess that my bad karma from the childish things I have done in my past came back to me today. I woke up this mourning. Bright blue sky, not a cloud in site. Had some wonderfull coffee, read the paper. Took a shower. Then I come to my room wanting to work on some tracks..... so I turn on my computer. Sipping my coffee, watching the happy mac face stare back at me. I smiled back. System startup is done, and then.................... WHAM!!!!!!!!!!! SYSTEM ERROR 127 please restart your computer.... and I am talking the white mac error window here.... in OS 9.2. That white bitchy error window. I go ok.... restart... sip my coffee... thinking to my self.. hey, its only a slight error, probubly some rare extension load bug... so the mac man startup looks at me with still with his grin... as if mocking me... so I hold my breath... WHAMOOO!!!!! ERROR 127 agian... So I took the typical mac trouble shooting steps. Clearing the PRAM, opening up the extensions manager and setting to base 9.2 extensions.... I then run Norton , reset the desktop file.... run anti virus... and still ...... turn off virtual memory.... the white error screen.... ERROR 127 please restart. 5 hours passing... I came this "__" close to fucking throwing my g4 out the god damn window... But I kept my cool, and am defraging my startup drive in hopes of resolving the conflict. Reason I am soo pissed... I HAVENT HAD THE TIME TO BACK UP ANY FILES YET!!!!! AAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHR!!!!!!!! So I write to you from my moms iBook, in high hopes that the defrag might work... send all your positive energy my way ladies and gentlemen. I am going to need it. Cause boy oh boy... if I lose my that stuff on my hd... I am going to just go out have a nice quite dinner with my friends and family and blow my fucking head off... send all your positive energy and wishes my way.... I need all the help I can get...
*PLUS*
The mac technical support guy I called from the apple head courters this afternoon said after a 2 hour call... and I quote "well... we have gone

You have my sympathy, Mickey.
When a good day turns for the worse, it's terrible. All those good intentions all go flooding down the drain :(

If you can't see the drive what are you defragging?
Is this a Norton emergency disk that sees the drive?

I mean everything was pretty shit . And today for some reason I was super happy and things were awesome..... untill this.....

That sucks. I hate it when the hard drive or something critical shits the bed. I wish there was a defrag utility built into the control panels.
Good luck w/ your computer. Maybe it's time to go to OSX?

Inverted whale I am using a small program that apple makes, part of the apple repair kit.. I tried Norton earlier this mourning and it couldnt recoknize any disk, then all the sudden the disk dissapears on me...... now I am using this small app that apple made which the tech guy suggested me to use.... it defrags the disk but does it in this sudo OS during the start up, so..... its kinda my last ditch effort.... Believe me this tech support fellow and I went over EVERYTHING, I mean EVERY-THING. A good 2 hours on the phone....

Thanks for the support everyone
OS X doesnt have protools, max/msp, supercollider, recycle, rebirth, all the small dsp apps I have coded and aquired over the years....and the slew of random apps I use regularly, I wish it could be that simple

OK, I guess your repair program checks the hard disk driver and replaces it if it is bad. That's what I would check.
There are places that can recover data from practically any dead drive, but it will cost $$$.

Ok. Here's a really corny self-help situation...

Sorry about that. I just had to do it in this situation! :)

Looks liek someone else has had this problem:

Originally posted by fatblackcat: just recently I've had a number of Mac's- iMac's and G4's- come up with error type 127 on startup (after loading all the extensions).

When I first installed the download version of the 9.1 update from Apple I got this same error message the following day. I got this from Apple Error Codes' site, "error -127 fsDSIntErr Internal file system error." I couldn't find a way to fix it (doesn't mean there isn't one ) so I simply went back to 9.0.4. Since I got Mac OS X I installed 9.1 from the CD that came with X and all seems to be fine.
