Choose restart from the Special menu.
Immediately after the startup chime, press and hold down the "R", the "P",
the apple key and the option key for at least 3 more chimes, then release.
This will reset some of your control panels to their factory defaults, so
you may have to go in a tweak a few panels, depending on which OS you are
using.
You should zap the PRAM about every two weeks, more or less, depending on
how much you use your Mac.
Cheers,
John
