Put that in your system folder (in the control panel : folder) and double click on it. There, it will give you the option to turn : it ON or OFF. It you want to run Norton Utilities, turn it OFF. When you : make a change you must reboot your Mac for the change to take place. After : you turn the cache off and reboot, you should be able to run Norton. : : If you plan of running software that is NOT compatable with the '040 cache : being turned ON, then I recommend getting (I believe it's shareware) : "Autocache". This lets you turn the cache on/off ON THE FLY without having : to reboot constantly. Just leave Apple's '040 Cache on ON and then just use : Autocache to switch your cache settings. : There is also another control panel device called "Animals". It is $50 from : Impulse Technologies. It AUTOMATICALLY switches cache modes for you. You : don't have to do anything. : I hope this was of some help. : Armin Jahromi : uajahrom@mcs.drexel.edu If you hold down the option key while turning the cache on or off, you don't have to reboot. /Mats -- Mats Bredell Mats.Bredell@udac.uu.se Uppsala University Computing Center (UDAC) Ph: +46 18 187817 Department of medical systems Fax: +46 18 187825 Sweden Think straight - be gay!
