Macintosh HD Locked?

[Punkyclown]

Hi all, while trying to make some changes on my PowerBook 1400c I found the my Macintosh HD drive is locked. And I can find no way to unlock it, or why it's locked or how it became locked. Is there someone out there who could help me on this issue? I am running MacOS 9.
Thank you
Brad Hansen

Hello,

Does it still startup, or does the lock prevent that?
