By the way, to start without extensions, just start or power up with the Shift key on the keyboard held down. Keep it down until you see the "Welcome to Macintosh" screen, and it will (on that screen) confirm "Extensions off".
Sorry I should have put that in the first answer.,
All the best

Ted Treen,
I wanted to thank you for your tip. Though i really did not have enough time to turn off more than one extension before it locked up again and i had to turn it off with the "force switch?" and start up again, but and this is a big one, when, after 4 attempts i finally turned off one extension and used the "restart" option on that pane a message came up telling me there was a print job in the que and did i want to cancel the print job and THAT MY FRIEND WAS THE PROBLEM. I cancelled the print job and the was able now to use the computer again.
