Helo, A couple of questions if I may. They both are as a result of some problems I ma experiencing with startup on my 9600/ g3-450. OS9.1
1) Virtually every time I start up, the screen freezes just at the point where the startup disc appears. A friend suggested starting with extensions off - works well - and then pulling the preferences folder to the desktop and re-starting. This works but really I'd like to know how to isolate the problem rather tha usig this method every time I start up. I have tried using conflict catcher but it seems to be giving contradictory results. I have also tried using techtool and diskwarrior, but any improvement lasts until the next startup. 2) the second question is kind of related because when I re-start with the prefernces folder on the desktop, of course the settings are gone. Is there any way of getting the macjine to remember some settigs. I particular I would like it to remember TCP/IP as I have to re-set that to use the adsl modem. and the monitors. Some admin keystrokes when I open those panels for example? Thanks in advance Tim Roberts -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
