Keywords: I recently bought a used Macintosh Classic 4/40. It came with alot of software that I was not sure I needed so I decided to reinstall System 7.0.1 and also run the Tune-up. Before doing this I removed everything from the hard drive and put it on disk then I installed System 7.0.1 and the tune-up. After removing everything from the hard drive I realized that it would be a few days before my system disks would arrive and I decided to reinstall my screen saver, AfterDark. This is when my problems started. I put the AfterDark control panel and the files in the control panel folder and tried to run the screen saver (after restarting my machine). It started to run, but VERY slowly. I discovered however that it only ran slowly when it went to sleep but not in the demo mode and not if another application was open. I have since installed the System 7.0.1 and the tune-up and the same thing is still happening. I have tried moving the files to outside the control panel folder and this is even worse. The only file which comes up is the Starry Night, the computer does not even see the rest of the AfterDark files. Does anyone know what is happening and how to fix this problem. Thanks in advance. Shannon
