Hahaha, hi again Listers, it's me with another really dumb question. Powerbook 5300c is running OS 8.6. The MacOS Help confirmed my memory that to zap the PRAM, I need to hold down the command-option-P-R keys on startup, and to rebuild the desktop, on startup I should hold down the command and option keys. I've just made three attempts on the PRAM zapping and two on the desktop rebuilding. So.....do any of you have any ideas on why --
How come my PRAM isn't zapped? I only got the one initial startup chime...I seem to remember getting repeated chimes until I took my fingers off the aforementioned keys. And how come my 5300 didn't ask me if I wanted to rebuild the desktop? ~Yersinia<----feeling seriously foolish.... -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
