i know i shouldnt be asking this, but while i was using bootcamp to create a partition for windows, (the need to run access and a few other apps for school became too great), it said that i need to 'repair the disk'. so i got into disk utility, the button for 'repair disk' is grey, so i press 'verify disk'. after running this i got this message.



Verifying volume ?Munch?

Checking HFS Plus volume.

Checking Extents Overflow file.

Checking Catalog file.

Incorrect number of thread records

Checking volume information.

The volume Munch needs to be repaired.

but still, the 'repair disk' button is still grey
