Corrupted Mac OS, System Preferences? Restart with extensions off then goto Preferences Folder to trash ASLM, Finder, Mac OS and System Preferences (without emptying trash). If it starts normally and gets to the desktop then you empty trash. Charlie >> ----- And while you are trashing preferences trash the Monitor and Sound folder as well. It will recreate itself when you open the Monitor and Sound Control panel. If you are using a video card trash that extension and any associated preference as well. Then reinstall it. And be sure you have the monitor plugged into the card and not the onboard video. Once I mistakenly plugged a monitor into the motherboard's video port instead of my video card and had the same problem you are experiencing. --glen (digest mode) -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
