Other things to look for that affect slow boots are: Using TTF for any default Workbench font. Something in WBStartup that waits a little too long. Some cool (but nasty) hacks. I would check my Fonts preferences and maybe launch snoopdos in the background from the startup-sequence... see if anything fishy is going on. My 1200 takes a while to load, but not any 5 minutes!!! 040, mediator, P96, a bunch of Hacks... -- -- Regards, Dave 'Targhan' Crawford
