Thanks Phil I'll try that ASAP. Also I should've mentioned the system currently runs OS8.1 with 16meg ram Gary -----Original Message----- From: Duo/2400 List [mailto:DuoList at lists.themacintoshguy.com] On Behalf Of Philip Mrozinski Sent: Saturday, March 13, 2004 6:15 AM To: Duo/2400 List Subject: [Duo2400] Re: Need info Gary, according to Apple (and my experiences), 9.1 needs at least 32mb real ram with VM turned up to 64mb. I just did an install on my 2300 without a hitch. As far as your other question about the fantom bootings...try turning off all extensions and see if it still happens. Or, perhaps a clean system install will help. Good luck, Phil
