So I finally got around to installing OS9 and updating the firmware. As soon as I booted into OS9, it said the Setup Assistant had crashed, with an error type 2. I went ahead and updated the firmware, and rebooted into OSX. No change. Everything still crashes. Any other ideas? -Jonas -- You

Sorry for the late response - been busy. I will check the console log, if I can open it without crashing. I'll put another hard drive in it, load OS9, and update the firmware. Thanks for the input so far! Will report back when I try the suggestions. -Jonas -- You received this message

Jonas, How much ram do you have? Can you max out the unit? Or are funds tight? Sounds like you have a sawtooth and it's max memory is 2 GB. it uses 4 - PC-100 3.3v, unbuffered, 8-byte, non-parity 168-pin SDRAM 512 MB max per slot. Might be a bad stick or mismatch set of sticks? It
