Although that is easier said than done, I might add. Good luck.

Disk Utility (Search in Finder) < Select Disk on left < First Aid < Verify Disk < Wait till its done < Repair disk
If it says in big red letters you need to use Disk 1 repair because the repairs are > 100GB, you need to go find the disks that came with your mac and find the one labeled Mac OS X reinstall and repair disk and boot your mac from that.
If not, then your basically done, now go back to disk utility < first aid <Verify disk permissions < repair disk permissions
and you're done :)
