EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

I've been running Logic Pro 6.4.3 on my Dual 1GHZ Quicksilver under OS 
9.2.2 & OS X.3.4,5,6 quite happily for some months. Over time I've  
added a whole bunch of new EXS Library. I keep it all on a 160GB 
internal 7200 rpm ATA drive. It's about half full.

Problem I'm having is that under OS X all the audio files read, scan 
and play perfectly. Under OS 9 only about half of the 120000 individual 
samples are actually recognised by the project manager and when I try 
to load an EXS instrument the samples plays white noise and digital 
hash etc.....

I did recently defragment the disk under OS X using Nortons Speed Disk 
and I think this was the beginning of the problems - but strange that 
it all works great under OS X but not under OS 9.

Under OS 9 when I try to point the PM at a specific audio file that the 
EXS is having problems with it simply asks me "what kind of file is 
this". But when I load the EXS instrument that points to that sample I 
get no protest from the EXS but all I hear is the aforementioned noise.

Under OS 9 I've tried Nortons disk doctor, Tech Tools Pro & Disk 
Warrior to fix it but no go. Also rebuilt the desktop.

Help on this would be much appreciated.

Thanks
