My G4 Dual 500 takes like 5 minutes to boot.
I turn it on. The starting sound plays. Black Screen. 5 Minutes later the OS9.1 screen showing up. Sometimes when I played with the "Extensions On/Off" it boots normal. But after 2 or 3 Reboots it's back to the old state... Anyone knows this problem? I think my Mac has a problem remembering stuff too. I always turn on the function "go to directory last used by program" and it always switches back to "go to directory prefered by the program" after i reboot. Maybe someone knows all this :-) |

thx a lot for the help. found it! i had 2x 256mb and 2x 128mb in the computer. i took both 128 out and it worked. now i'm running 512. tomorrow i'll try to hook up only 1 of the 128s to test which one is broken.
