Hi,
I am looking for some Troubleshooting software that will run under
Mac OS X 10.3.9. I am looking for this because I have 3 iBook G3 500
Late 2001. They all have 256MB of RAM and 15GB Hard Drives. 2 of them
boot up really nice and quick and are ready to go the 3rd takes at
least a minute to a minute an 1/2 longer to boot than the others. It
seems to sit on the screen that is grey with the swirling circle a lot
longer than the other 2 do. This happens regardless of if the laptop
is running on battery or electrical.
Troubleshooting:
1) Ran Apple Hardware Diagnostics with no problems.
2) Someone suggested that it might be an issue with the Hard Drive so
I ran FSCK with no errors.
3) Ran Apple Hard Drive Utility and ran a check on the hard drive and
did a correct permissions. The check was clean and it corrected some
permissions, still no change.
4) As a last resort I wiped the hard drive and re-installed 10.3.9,
still no change.
