Hi Everyone
I consider myself very much a novice with IT in general but i love my mac and because it interests me i know my way around in MacOSX to limited extent, I have a later model Mac G3 Power PC750 (600Mhz) with 256 meg of Ram running Mac0S 10.3.9 quite hapilly, or it was until several months ago, i started getting this descending gray veil effect at odd moments with a black box in the centre containing white text in several languages telling me that - "you need to restart your computer....." with brief descriptions of a couple of ways to do this. I'm don't install much software (other than the apple updates) as i'm only using the Mac for mail, surfing and a little itunes music downloading, although i did load a few freebies that came with my MacFormat mag-some widgets and a kind of add-on quick-launch toolbar for app's called Tigerlauch-these-
widgets in themselves work perfectly, but as i can't think of anything else that could be causing some kind of conflict i'd thought i'd tell you. I've noticed that if i connect to the internet and then launch itunes this "restart" is likely to happen but if it do the same things the other way round (itunes first) it does'nt?
I have about 4.5 GB of music etc. in my itunes folder in a 38.15 GB Hard drive with about 26 GB used.is my older machine just overworked? or could there be some kind of conflict going on somewhere? I'd br very grateful for any king of light you could shed on this problem.
Thank You
Dave.
