If you can't boot, then how are you able to switch back to 24-bit mode? A floppy? Or holding down the shift key? If it's the shift key, then I'd bet money an extension or control panel is the problem. Some will work under system 7 in 24-bit mode but not in 32-bit. Two I've found so far are the Little Mouse ADB Extension and Foldershare. -- scasterg@magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu Stuart M Castergine "The key to speaking Elvish is to know a lot of Elvish words." --Sgacity
