What have I done/[G4] Nostalgia

[CDT]

Umar,

In about 2 years of using and suggesting the OF resets, I am not  
aware of them creating any new problems.  The January 09 Archive of  
the G4 list has a post you may find interesting.

[G4] Re: Fixed, at last   RELNGSON at aol.com

If you have a spare drive, you might try doing a clean install of  
10.4.11 on it and use that installation to troubleshoot the SATA  
drive problem.

Do you use the Chron utilities?  They run early in the morning if you  
leave the computer on overnight.  Otherwise, MacJanitor (and there  
are others) does a good job of keeping them current.  I have seen  
MacJanitor clear up some weird problems, too.  On my machines, at the  
1st sign of trouble I do the OF Resets and run MacJ.  That seems to  
keep them running pretty trouble free.
