That little shimmy the password box makes indicates an invalid password. Your re-install has maintained your original admin password. > Have reinstalled password via disk utility but still no success. AFAIK, Disk Utility has no bearing on passwords. So you mean...something else? If you cannot recall your original password, you may create a new one by starting up from the OS install CD. When the Installer appears, choose "Reset Password" from the Installer menu, and follow directions. [Or... is this what you have already done when you say "have reinstalled password via disk utility"?] Mary -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
