Help!
I just did a clean install of OS 9.1 on my 2400c, and as soon as i start up, the finder quits. Any ideas as to what might be wrong?
Thanks a bunch,
-Leigh

I'll second that!
I just put my G3 240 upgrade in and did a clean install of 9.1.
Whenever I insert a PC Card, Finder Quits. At this point, I'm assuming that
I'm missing something pertaining to my 9.1 install. It's a default install
with the only additional software being the Nupowr drivers and the Japanese
language kit.
Any help is appreciated,
Chris
I keep a Folder on every Mac's DeskTop with 3-4 fresh Finders, which I have copied from the OS install disk.
The first reaction to any startup problem is to drag the System Finder -as well as the Finder Preferences to the Trash, drag a new Finder from the Folder into the System and restart. Usually causes the problem to be solved.
Can't say that you will have the same positive results in this instance, but it is worth a try and it can't hurt. It is also just another little Mac tip that needs to get passed around.
