Okay, let me try this. . . this could be a hardware issue OR a software issue.
My upgraded 9600 seems to be doing fine with everything except my PowerRIP 2000 software. Every time I try to quit the application it closes the program window but stays in the menu bar. When I go to the Application menu, it's still there, but in the menu bar, "Quit" is grayed out. If I force quit I get an "Error 10" alert. After some checking around I've found that this means "unimplemented instruction" -- lack of support for the machine on which the program is being run. This is also known as a "line 1111 trap error." Online sources tell me that this can be traced to software OR it can be related to flash memory, DRAM or an issue with the CPU.
I tried rebuilding the desktop, but when it got to my ATA hard drive everything froze up and I had to reboot.
I ran a test (imperfect, I know) on the RAM using RAM Check 2.1, and that came up clean. Does this indicate a problem with the CPU? Am I barking up the wrong tree here? Any ideas? I haven't tried zapping PRAM yet. Not sure what that will do to the Sonnet card or the OS9 Helper-installed 9.2.2.
tried trashing the prefs folder ? especially the macos system & finder prefs + the powerrip prefs ?
it doesnt have to be a bad cpu - maybe just some error with 9.2.2 -
I 've been running 9.2.2 with almost that same set up and I 've noticed that it crashes more often and then mainly in Internet explorer,
I use a non english system may this is why, since nobody else spoke up about this.
