When you zap the PRAM it defaults the time.

This evening I noticed that one of my processors was not running--MenuMeters showed 0%. To remedy the situation I zapped the PRAM, did a low level reset and restarted. The G4 restarted in OS 9.2.2, and indicated that my date and time were incorrect. When I went to the Date and Time Control Panel to set the date and time, my Mac crashed. I ran DiskWarrior and it repaired several items....the same issues on each of my internal drives. I don't know what the problem was with my date and time, or why the Mac crashed when I tried to set it. My PRAM battery is fresh....yet the date showed as 1904. Strange. Thankfully, I am back to normal now. What is the keyboard command that allows you to re-start and then select a startup disk?
