Problem: Computer does not seem to run any faster.
Possible
Solutions:
Rebuild the Desktop file (an invisible resource file where
the computer stores important system information).
Restart your computer and hold down the Command-
Option keys until the Desktop rebuild dialog box
appears; click ‘OK’.
Problem: Computer freezes at desktop or at random.
Possible
Solutions:
This may be due to the hard disk driver being old,
corrupted, or incompatible with the G3 processor. You
may need to:
1) Update hard disk drivers to current version.
2) Rebuild the Desktop file (an invisible resource file
where the computer stores important system
information). Restart your computer and hold down
the Command-Option keys until the Desktop rebuild
dialog box appears; click ‘OK’.
3) Zap the PRAM (an area of the Mac’s memory that
stores such information as preference settings). Restart
your computer and hold down the Command-Option-
P-R keys until the computer chimes three times. After
the computer finishes booting, open the Date & Time
control panel from the Control Panels Folder (located
inside the Systems Folder) and reset the date and time.
You may also want to reset your preference settings
for the Mouse and Keyboard control panels.
4) If there is an internal 28.8K GeoPort Express modem
in your computer, it is unfortunately not compatible
with the G3 processor. The internal modem and its
supporting software will need to be removed;
however, an external modem works fine.
