Have you checked the support section of Apple's website? <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300537> <http://www.info.apple.com/kbnum/n300552> This seems like an unusual problem. They may be the same problem. They may be different. Shot-gunning some questions: What devices are you plugging in to the USB port? You may or may not have the drivers, or the device might not function under OS X. What drive is set to be the startup drive? Repaired Permissions lately? Find Disk Utility in the Utilities Folder. Anyone else? No one, no one is here. We stand in the Atlantic. We become panoramic. __________<http://home.golden.net/~samu>__________ ----------------------------------------------------------- For information about MUGLO: http://www.freewebs.com/muglo -----------------------------------------------------------
