[QUOTE="poobah, post: 129824, member: 9127"] Hi, Brought a Maxtor external HD the other day and went straight into using it an excellent product i brought the 160GB one touch model, This is what you have to be careful on, the one touch system apparently crashes your system when you restart, like it did in my case it's because something relating to the one touch discs when installing leaves something inside on the program, well the situation i'min now and if anyone can help when my system reboots it shows a power button in the centre of the screen followed by a similar looking MS DOS mode with the words at the bottom panic: we are hanging here.... i have seem similar problems on other forums relating to this product it's perfectly fine withut installing the software but i followed instructions and this is now my dilemma a system tottaly unusable, i am however looking at completely startingfrom scratch and i was able to upload all files and programs before this happened, so the question is can anyone help????? Thanks for reading Richard (iMac G4 17" Superdrive) [/QUOTE]
