Okay, I have 10.4.11 (actually iPC OSx86 10.4.8 'updated' with systemversion.plist)

Anyways, starting yesterday, I have had to press F8 for options, and then press -f for tiger to successfully start up. If I leave it be, and don't press anything, I do get past the white/grey apple screen, but then a whole bunch of text comes up. It says something like 9 out of 10 crashes before system will reboot.

How can I fix this?

Do you need more text?

BTW: It says something about my wireless card RT2560, so it says, which is a Linksys WMP54G, it also says the name of the driver thingy I installed to get it working. It is the Ralink one, the RT 61.

I really appreciate your help,
oh, and I'm a new to macs and the kext/terminal/backup/kernel/what-chya-ma-call-'ems tongue.gif

[EDIT]
Here is some actual text that it said, please know, this was not the only text
9 more failures without living at least 60 seconds will cause job removal

It also says something about:
apple.com.mDNSResponder
apple.com.nibindd
apple.com.usbmuxd

Type this in terminal see if it works. Works in Leopard and snow for me:

sudo kextcache -v 1 -t -m /System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/Extensions.mkext /System/Library/Extensions
