This morning when I turned on my Mac, I got a System Error id=1 before the boot process finished. Subsequent tests indicated that with just the following items in my System Folder, the Mac would crash at startup if MaxAppleZoom was present, and boot just fine if it was not present: Clipboard File, Finder, Finder Startup, General, Key Layout, Keyboard, Monitors, Mouse, Note Pad File, Sound, Startup Device, System Since MaxAppleZoom is somewhat hardware dependent, I have attached a MacEnvy report of the hardware configuration. I am running system 6.0.5. When I tried it with 6.0.3, instead of a crash, I got the MaxAppleZoom icon with an X over it. Accessing it through the control panel got the message that it could not work with my hardware configuration. Yet it was working fine before the weekend, and I didn't make any change to the Mac hardware or system software on Friday (so far as I can remember). Any help with this problem would be appreciated. Please reply directly to me (or send be a copy).
