Must I endure a 2-5 minute delay launching Classic OS from my G4 running OS 10.2.1? Even with the ethernet cable disconnected, and only the '9.2.2 base' extensions enabled by the Classic Extensions Mgr, I watch as those few extensions flash across the bottom of the Classic start-up screen while the 'thermometer' loading indicator moves quickly to the right. Then everything stops; no activity on the screen, and by the sound of it, all disk I/O stops, and I wait, and I wait .... lots of time to go for coffee, but it sure is annnoying. Any advice?
Greg ps - one oddity: clicking the mouse several times between the OS X and the OS 9.2.2 windows APPEARS to speed up the launch; I also wonder if there's some sort of interrupt that 9.2.2 is waiting for, because if things go long enough my OS X screen saver kicks in (at 5 mins) and presto! 9.2.2 comes to life (once I move the mouse or strike a key and leave the screen saver.) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Gregory Mountain [EMAIL PROTECTED] Research Professor Adjunct Sr. Res.
