startup cursor freeze issue

1997–98May 5, 1997Macs Only!Tips
MacFixIt (5/5) describes a certain but obscure bug in MacOS 7.6.1 that causes a freeze when using the Views control panel (this is one that I turn off) to do multiple changes in font size. Also decribed is a startup cursor freeze issue -- this happened a lot on my PowerBase 180 when I was having other problems with MacOS 7.6.1 and I attributed it to them. However, since I've reverted to MacOS 7.6 it has happened once. It may be a mouse problem so I'll keep a watch on this one.
