Koht) writes: [..stuff deleted..] If you are using system 6.0.7 on an old computer (which you shouldn't) this error message is probably caused by something which has nothing to do with a coprocessor. However, since with 6.0.7 has 'small helpful messages' for the different errors, you will get messages for unknown errors which doesn't necessarily make sense on a plus, SE or old mac II or whatever you are using. Try to track down the system error like you would do normally (blame the INITs) and just ignore the message about the coprocessor. Also if you have a mac which is not a IIsi, Classic or LC, the recommended system is 6.0.5. -My MAC is a IIcx. Is it not recommended to run 6.0.7 on this machine? Arild
