First, thanks to all who responded to my cry for help. I tried everything that was suggested, to no avail. Unfortunately, the machine teased me by allowing me to almost completely reload the software, but it finally gave up the ghost. I am currently booting with the La Cie hard drive. I got all my wife's important school data onto a Zip disk and now she can take that to school and load it on to one of their old Macs and burn a CD. That problem is solved. However, I hate to give up on this old "friend". It has served me well these 10 years. While I do most of my work on my G4 running Tiger, The Starmax still has a nice Sony 19" monitor, a recent Epson printer, a Microtec scanner, the Zip Drive mentioned above, and of course, the La Cie external hard drive. I had been considering upgrading the Starmax for the past couple of years, so I guess now is the time. Now that I have spent so much time inside the box, I feel confident that I can do this. However, when I check things out, I can't figure out if I need a new hard drive plus the upgrade card to a G3, or will the G3 card accomplish what I need. Common sense tells me that some sort of drive is necessary. Can someone tell me which products will serve me best to do this upgrade? Thanks, again.
