thanks allot clark i have been looking for a fix to that for awhile.....but unfortunatly my ws wont boot into 9 either......it goes to the happy comp screen then flickers then boots 10.....and this wont work in classic mode....it wont even boot off a 9 install cd.....so im stuck....it is a 20 gb (18.62 really) toshiba MK2016GAP hard drive.....can any one please tell me how to get this to 9 boot??
...this drive has been having troubles with os X from the start....even when empty it wouldent install couse it said it wasnt in the first 8 gb of space........so i had to boot onto a 9 install disk(worked fine before 10) and partition it with one 8 gb and one the rest then do the install.......

I know this is a common problem but I don't know if this fix is well known. My Wallstreet (OS 10.2.6) started not lighting the screen after waking from sleep and restart. After looking around I found a suggestion of booting into OS 9, sleeping it, waking it and switching back to OS X. I tried this and it worked.

It started having problems after the battery popped loose when it was asleep.

I had some problems setting the start up disk in OS 9 but I think that was another problem (I ended up having to update the disk driver and run DFA on the boot disk).

Anyways I figured I'd post this as from my reading the problem is common but I didn't find the solution until after a lot of digging.
