[QUOTE="Badger, post: 138277"] These models, 233 mhz rev A or B, came with 8.1 as the OS, not 9x. If you are still using 32 mgs of RAM the problem may be there. First 9x uses a lot more RAM than versions of 8. OS 9.2 on my 333mhz rev D uses 41 mgs of RAM while 8.6 used 27. To compensate for the low amount of RAM the computer will try to use virtual memory. If there is not enough space on the hard drive for the VM temporary file the app won't launch properly. You can try to clean out the hard disk to more free space. On a long-term basis you will want to consider some hardware upgrades like more RAM or a larger hard disk. For info on older macs you can go to [url]www.lowendmac.com[/url]. [/QUOTE]
