[QUOTE="reconsniper, post: 759798, member: 74861"] Hello, My girlfriend has a MAC (PowerBook G4). It takes a about 4 minute to boot up. It sits on the logo of the Apple for about 2 1/2 minutes. I do not have that much knowledge with MACs but I am efficient with Window Machines. Specs: MAC OS X (Version 10.4.11) Processor 1.5 Memory 512 There is 32 GB free. I have attempted the following solutions: 1.) removed all programs from the Login tab 2.) downloaded OnyX and did a cleanup (cleaned out the caches (except for system and kernal), did the permission thing) 3.) Removed the Fonts to see if that was the cause. 4.) I have installed a virus scanner. In further research, I read that there is no spyware for MAC and only a few viruses. Other than a fresh install, any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
