</div></div>Hi Joe,<br>
Thanks very much for the answer. In my case it looks like I'm sorry<br>
I woke you up. I tried the most recent 2009 CD as well as the 2007 CD<br>
I built the machine with the first time. Looks like this Mac Mini has<br>
gone down hard - bad disk at least, possibly bad memory. I'm not sure<br>
it's worth my effort to fix it as it's so very slow.<br>
<br>
Anyway, I appreciate the answer and wish you all the best. Thanks<br>
for your efforts.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
