Hi, I have a 7600 running OS 9.0.4 with PowerLogic G4 at very stable 350 Mhz
and just had an odd problem. True, I was fiddling a bit with extensions and
things (put in a 1.6 version of CarbonLib to replace earlier one and some
others - but this prob seems to occur now even when I am running with all
extensions off or, indeed, starting from another hard disk with a good old
8.6 on it):

I go to the Special menu, choose restart and the machine shuts all programs
off ok but does not restart. The screen goes blank, there's a quiet sort of
"pfft" sound from the computer box and nothing happens. I can boot up again
by turning off the power and then pressing the start button on keyboard or
just pressing the button on front left of the 7600.

Hot restart is very useful and I want it back! I have zapped pram and run
diagnostics on files but no go. Norton's, Techtool Pro, Disk First Aid.
Please God, let it not be a Hardware prob. I have been a good person mostly.

Anyone had this prob or have suggestions?

David
