This forces the computer to look for a bootable volume other than the internal startup drive (including a CD-ROM). This often works when a Mac refuses to boot from CD even when holding down the "C" key. on 2/16/03 10:01 PM, Don P. at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > My Lombard is going into a freeze at the Apple logo > upon Startup.

Like I said, No keyboard keys seem to help. Even SAFE BOOT (Shift key at chimes) won't get me past the Apple. It scares me to try to run a CD Startup with the hard drive disconnected and replug while hot with everthing open, but what else is left? don __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
