Since installing Norton Utilities a few weeks ago, I have been having some strange problems with Directory Assistance - the file opening/loading dialog utility it provides. First of all I am running Sys 7.0 with tune up. Whenever I try to open or load a file, and the Directory Assistance and it displays the current folders at that level of the file system, I can almost never double click on a folder and have it open up. I must select the folder and then click the OPEN button. Also whenever I have to type a name for a file I am saving in the same Directory assistance type window, the display of the characters that I am typing is VERY S L O W!. I can usually get about 8 char's ahead of it. When I look at the disk led on my drive, its flashing away like mad. I am not sure what's going on. I don't believe I have any unusual inits installed on the machine either. I have reinstalled the entire Norton Utility package with all extensions turned off, and it made no difference. I know another coworker who has the same problem on his machine, while yet another worker does not have these problems and we are all running ~~same stuff. Any ideas would be appreciated. Please email responses, as I can't read this group every day. thanks 'mark ahlenius@rtsg.mot.com or just try to respond to this address of posting. -- =============== regards 'mark ============================================= Mark Ahlenius voice:(708)-632-5346 email: ahlenius@marble.rtsg.mot.com Motorola Inc. fax: (708)-632-2413 Arlington, Hts.
