Okay, much earlier I posted that I had a problem with System Preferences, it wouldn't open, and had a question mark on it. I was suggested to use Pacifist (http://www.charlessoft.com/) to extract System Preferences from the OS X disks and reinstall it on my computer. I'm having problems doing that. Pay attention.
1. I open Pacifist.
2. I insert OS X install disk 1
3. I click "Open Aplle install disks"
4. The status bar opens, midway through I have to insert disk 2.
5. I don't remember, but I think I reinsert disk 1 after that. Anyway, I get to the end, and I browse the disks and find System Preferences, and extract it. Picture here: http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj306/Mandokar/Picture1.png
6. It's extracted, and in applications. Picture here: http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj306/Mandokar/Picture2.png
7. When I open it, this is what I get: http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj306/Mandokar/Picture3.png
Obviously, this isn't what's supposed to happen. Please help; I need an answer. I can't do anything without System Preferences.
