Michael,

My machine is as follows:

  Model Name:   MacBook Pro
  Model Identifier:     MacBookPro2,1
  Processor Name:       Intel Core 2 Duo
  Processor Speed:      2.33 GHz
  Number Of Processors: 1
  Total Number Of Cores:        2
  L2 Cache:     4 MB
  Memory:       3 GB
  Bus Speed:    667 MHz

Is it a possibility that there is something other than the SL installation causing your grief? It just seems strange that your machine appears to be a bit of an exception to the rule.

Not that it is of any consolation to you, both the upgrades I did were seamless, I didn't have to do anything other than run a few updates when I started some applications.


Regards,

Adrian

Adrian,

MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM

Annoying things like erratic connection to internet using Mobile3 usb modem, documents in .tif format not being readable on screen but they print ok.

When I'm working under pressure and need to be able to rely on my computer to function efficiently (as it did before SL) I resent having to find a
"cure" and taking 40 minutes or so to connect to the internet.

Whatever speed savings there are in starting up pale into insignificance
compared to productivity losses because things don't work.

Cheers,

Michael.

Hi Michael, can I  ask what sort of machine you had the Snow Leopard
installation with?   I upgraded a MacBook and a Macbook Pro and am
very impressed with the speed increase and particularly with regaining approximately 22GB of disk space. With the exception a printer driver
and minor issues with Mail all the old programmes still work OK., all
be it in Rosette.

I regret making the move. It is frustrating having to fix things that
weren't broken before.

With all this anguish and re-installing applications etc.. I think I will stick with OS 10.5.6.... unless there is some compelling reason
to move to Snow Leopard.
