On or about 2/17/03 8:43 AM chris AKA [EMAIL PROTECTED] eruditely mused the following:

Maybe you have one in there that is >causing this. > I had not verified that the folder was empty because I did not want to open the folder and thereby make a .DS_Store file in the folder and jepourdise the integrity of the Temp Incoming folder. I downloaded "Betterfile" a non OSX invisible file application and sure enough there were three files in the folder but no .DS_Store file. When I opened the folder the 3 files are visible (dated 1/25, 1/25 and yesterday) and with Temp Reader all I see is: "end of header" & "end of message", so I presume these are pretty useless files. Having opened the Temp Incoming folder I have now deleted the folder. I will see if it still causes the problem on 1st startup as the files did not seem to affect CE after the first startup from 9.1 as I had been using it fine for a few weeks without restarting. The crash on 1st restart did not affect me until I restated from Mac OS 9.1 using XPostFacto because Startup Disk does not work when restarting from 9.x into OSX on unsupported Macs. >Otherwise, since it works under OS 9, I would check to make sure the same >extensions are loaded for 9 as for Classic in X. The 9.1 system Folder I use is virtually identical to the Classic System Folder because the Classic System Folder was a duplicate of the 9.1 but upgraded to 9.2.2 so i doubt this is a problem in light of the experience detailed above.
