[QUOTE="mystique, post: 26314"] when my mac (iBook G4, OS X 10.3.3) starts up, it skips items that have to be loaded. so it displays the login screen very quickly. as a result internet connection is down. sometimes the problem is fixed just by restarting, but after another restart the same thing occurs. i've tried repairing the permissions and i let onyx do all those things it does. it worked 1 time, but the problem came back one restart later. the last thing i did was resetting the PRAM and the computer started normally. now i'm afraid to turn of my mac. can someone tell me what's going on? and preferably give a permenant solution... (be nice, i'm new to this) :) [/QUOTE]
