I have heard so many scary stories about the death blue screen on mac, I have actually experience it with a mac at our church that I had to re-program from the floor up with the re-start discs. I am new to Mac still and was wondering for all the MAC PRO hot shots out there...

When I turn on my Mac Pro (10.5.7) i get the apple screen with the thinking wheel and then it goes to a blue screen for about 2 seconds and then it gives me my desktop, I hadnt really noticed it until I started reading more about "the blue screen" but my question is... is the blue screen for a couple of seconds normal or should it go from the white log in apple screen directly to desktop without any hesitation or blue screen??? Please help! kind of worried about it now.

That is how they all boot. THat is normal.



Black > White Apple Screen > Plain Blue Flash > Loaded



If you had an issue, you would never see a apple screen, you would just have an empty blue screen and sometimes it will have a big question mark on it.

Is Windows 98 the most important part of your computer? Are you getting the dread blue screen errors? Windows 98 and blue screen of death are quite common, because this was a major programming bug in windows system. When you get windows 98 and blue screen of death, it generally means that somewhat is wrong in registry.

What is the registry?



Registry the main component of the windows system. Windows registry in which computer stores all system information (Windows, hardware, and software). When files get corrupted within it, it causes windows 98 to go a little wild. The newer Windows compensates for this and doesn't go into blue screens as much.

The most likely cause is a bloated registry which has become the home for all kinds of useless bits and pieces of data. Whenever any change is made to the system settings or a program is installed or uninstalled, a new entry is generated in the registry. The operating system while running your computer has to pick its way through all this excess material. There is a multitude of useless bits and pieces to be removed.Parts of uninstalled programs,parts of incompletely installed programs,dead drivers and many other things. clean your registry and remove all the useless data fragments and no longer needed information to fix the Blue Screen of Death error! I should like to commend Registry Easy http://cleanup-comuter-run-perfectly.com to you ! You can try ! Good luck!
