M-Audio finally admitted their Uninstaller doesn't work ... After using AppleJack to its fullest extent, I'm still getting a bluescreen and kps from time to time at Startup ... and cannot see what's going on in the System Logs ... just too many unknowns ... Also removed Adobe Version Cue from Startup Items ... only leaving M- Audio. So I've decided to begin an Archive and Install of OS X 10.5.5 again. Then I'll only add "Enhancement Applications" like my M-Audio 2496 drivers, and Logitech's Wireless KB and Mouse apps ... both claim to work under 10.5.5 on a PPC. Just got rid of another RAM stick, leaving 1 - 512MB stick, which I ran 3 cycles each of Memtest in Single User Mode, switching the good stick from RAM slot to slot. It's probably a renegade "enhancement" app ... disorientated by botox or something ...
