That is a USB bus error, so it's not surprising that Disk Utility found nothing :-) It's kind of like checking the pressure in your tires when the 'Check Engine' light is on. I'd take everything USB off the system except the keyboard, and see if Applejack still reports these errors. If it doesn't, re-add USB devices one at a time, checking in System Profiler to see that they're recognized and functional,, until you get an error. If it does continue to report the errors, try swapping the keyboard, or you may have a failing USB bus on the logic board. This is easily remedied, by adding a USB PCI card. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
