Start up classic via System Preferences with Open Extensions Manager chosen in the Advanced tab, then turn OFF the following: Control Panels - Control Strip, Energy Saver, File Sharing, Infrared, Location Manager, Modem, Monitors, Mouse, Multiple Users, Password Security, PowerBook SCSI Disk Mode, Remote Access, Software Update, TCP/IP, Trackpad, Web Sharing Extensions - DialAssist, Internet, Location Manager Extension, Apple Modem Tool, LDAP extensions, NBP Plugin, NetSprocketLib, Remote Only, ShareWay IP Personal Bgnd, AppleTalk, AirPort extensions, Keychain Access, IrDA Tool, IrDALib, Apple Enet, AppleShare, EnetShimLib, File Sharing Extension, SLPPlugin, all DVD extensions, Disk Burner extension, FireWire extensions. You may want to save the Extensions Manager set minus the above as something like "My Classic Settings", just in case you ever want to boot up in 9.1. If you can borrow a copy of "Mac OS X: The Missing Manual", the details start around page 136. - Gary -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
