Ok I got the cube to restart. I attatched the mouse directly to the cube instead of the keyboard and held down the mouse button. Voilla! OS9 started up. NOW the CD is not recognized and its locked into the cube. Is there a key combination that I can do to eject a cd or have the computer check if there is one in there? I know there is an eject button on the keyboard but that is doing nothing. There is no icon on the desktop for the cd that is in there. Thanks again! Noel C. Westerlind Jr.
