Hello Everyone,
A buddy of mine recently gave me his black Macbook. It had one hard drive fail and then it was acting up after it was replaced so he gave it to me to fix to either keep or sell...
Anyway I re-installed Tiger from the two install CDs. I didn't do an archive and install, I chose to erase everything. After booting it up it seemed fine but then I got the spinning pinwheel for about 3 or 4 minutes. After reading up on it online I found how to use Console and I was able to see that it was Coreservicesd crashing. Upon further research I found that this was often caused by Icons...
This seems to make perfect sense to me because the only time it happens is when I first boot the system and click on Applications. This will induce a few minute hang and then many of the icons will be incorrect or black & white, or just all together not there.
I just updated to 10.4.11 and the problem is still there.
Can anyone help me out and try to solve this problem?
Thanks,
Mike
