>>You could try to boot from another harddisk. Have you? When I said this I forgot that indeed you are trying to starup the computer with CDs and it doesn't work, if disconnecting the ethernet cable fails to solve your problem, I also tried disconnecting all internal harddrives and internal devices (Zip, Jaz, CD) except floppy and starting the computer with another drive with a bus connected directly to the motherboard. You can never go wrong with the classic 50 pin SCSI which I do believe all Macs had the plug on board before the iMacs came (correct me if I am wrong) but with problems like this if you have SCSI cards and such, you must try to use something else. You should try as many harmless things before attempting to call someone else for help or spending a great amount of money in a dealer. Lili -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
