Dear Alex, After booting my Mac, I had speech on the log on window, but not after logging into my user account. Pressing cmd+F5 did nothing. I pressed the commands to take a system snapshot as you suggested. Since I had no speech, I had to hole down the power button to shut down. after rebooting and logging back in, how do I find the system snapshot, and what is its name? Thanks, Rob
