I don't have a Tempo card.<snip.... >Jeff Walther I've not seen this problem with my Sonnet Tempo card. I have OS 9.04 (my main OS) & OS 8.6 on two different partitions on my Tempo card and then OS 9.1 on an old SCSI drive mostly for Classic within OSX and OSX on another old SCSI drive . My machine will boot and use as default which ever OS I choose in the ' Startup Disk" control panel. I use XPostFacto" of course for boot OSX and when I want to switch back to OS 9.x I hold down the option key and it goes back to the startup disk choice. Works very well every time.Do I remember someone saying some SCSI drives have a jumper pin for a delay at startup to solve this problem of SCSI drives starting up sooner then IDE drives? My old IBM and Seagate drives came with supermac machines and I know they startup sooner then the IDE drives because I can't miss the sound they make. Not loud just the sound they have always made even on old compact Macs. later Will S
