If I remember correctly, the 09 means that it is an Apple Desktop Bus error. i.e. your keyboard or mouse or trackball, etc is bad. In my case, I was trying to use an OLD Kensington Turbo Mouse with a ROM 3 IIGS. Anyway, to figure out which ADB device is bad, just pull them all and then run the self-test each time you re-attach a device (don't forget to turn off your computer before you plug/unplug something!) To run the self-test with no keyboard attached, use a joystick (the fire buttons correspond to the Command and Option keys on the keyboard.) Hope that helps. Diz -My- Name: Steven W.
