[QUOTE="hyperstatik, post: 537107, member: 39022"] I would say probably not. Since OSX shouldn't have to use that much space for the system to run properly. (Might check on a defrag though) I personally had to do a full format and reinstall after a archive and install was VERY SLOW. My system actually took over 30 mins to boot to finder before the format. After the reinstall; even though my ibook is bare minimum, it is running every thing like a champ. Also if you don't want to do a full format, I would do like life said and check on maintenance/cleaning utilities and might check on any extra programs you may have that could be causing conflict (The reason I had to do the format.) hope it helps hyperstatik [/QUOTE]
