[QUOTE="AnthonyS, post: 742417, member: 52964"] Update..... OK, so I reverted back to my old 10gig, reinstalled OS9 and wiped the drive clean. Then I added OSX the first edition. The drive loads up no problem. Piggy-backed the SLAVE 120gig, it loaded which I am pleased. The I had to change the access privaleges. OK, that worked too. I was even able to run Norton's Disk Dr and Speed Disk. All is good. I tried piggy-backing the Master 120gig, No Dice. I don't know of the OSX 10.3.9 software was conflicting with the OSX 10.0 on the 10 gig or what. I even had the System Preferences set up to launch from the 10 gig drive. But I kept getting the [ ? ] folder on the start-up screen. I tried using my OS9 system disk and Nortons and starting up using the "C" key. The disk would launch, and load up to the desktop, but not ONE drive even showed. I feel like I want to take a big magnet to the 120gig that's not cooperating and wipe it clean. But I feel like it's either the drive tanked or somehow the OSX 10.3.9 software went corrupt somehow. Any ideas??? [/QUOTE]
