Hi Ann,
I have a laptop. I tried the combination of fingers you suggested. I held
down all 5 keys. What I heard as I was holding down the keys was the buzzing
sound and the startup sound over and over. I finally let go of the keys and
the system booted. I never hear what I would consider
Hello Les,
You hold down the Command, Option, R and P keys but just press the Power button
once. Sorry I didn't make that clear in the first place.

What exactly are prams, and why and how often do you need to reset them?

Les,

I would not worry too much about PRAM's. I have no Apple evidence of
the below message, but I can certainly believe it. Though I suppose
that Apple might have updated the key sequence some to clear out other
nasty issues I don't expect that to be the case.

Hi Marlaina,
Actually, I'm trying to do this on an MBP{ and having no luck. I imagine I'll
get it at some point, though.

Hi!
Also, holding these keys down is fine, as long as it is done just when you hear
the startup chime. Keep in mind, there is a startup delay, which means that you
can do it within this timeframe. I often just hold down any keys to affect the
startup when I hear the chime. Not a second after,
