Okay, I've missed some of these "screen of death" posts,so ignore me if this isn't applicable.
On my S900, running OS10.2.8, sometimes I get this. When it happens I have to force it to boot in classic by holding down onee of the keys. I'm not sure, but I think it is the option key. When I get back into OS 9 I can use XPostFacto to boot back into OS10. I don't remember what system you said you were running. -----Original Message----- From: Paul Corsa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: May 12, 2005 7:28 AM To: SuperMacs List <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [SM] Black Screen of Death Forgive me if this has been asked before, but you did reseat all your PCI cards to make sure they have clean contacts? Remove the screw, pull the card out, push it back in all the way, replace the screw? If one card isn't seated properly it could be affecting the others, I believe.
