Hey all
Not sure if this is the right place for this topic but i've run into something strange and was wondering if i could get some help fixing it.
I've noticed 2 things that are kind of strange that have been going on with my system lately. The first one is whenever any of my browsers reach the point of downloading a file (off of sites like macupdate, torrent sites, etc...) it just hangs on the screen and never actually downloads the files unless i go back and right click and 'save link as'. Now when I go to the same site with my powerbook running the same OS it doesn't have a problem.
Also, another big problem is certain installers (such as some vise ones) cause problems where they A: don't open at all or B: get to the point of the install and then just hang with a beach ball forever. Again when i run the same installers on my powerbook they seem to work just fine.
The computer in question is a Powermac G5 running OS X 10.4.9
I haven't upgraded to anything higher because I am a pro tools user and so far with this setup pro tools has not given me any issues.
If anyone has any suggestions that would be great.
Thanks a lot.
Cheers
