I have searched the web and looked in many forums and haven't found a problem remotely like the one I’m having.
The problem is with my MMD FW800. It’s a dual processor running at 1.25 GHz with two 80 GB hard drives. The first hard drive has Tiger installed and the second has Leopard. The problem is that when I have a studio display connected it will either not boot or boot into open firmware. Also with the studio display connected, the computer will give a long tone before the initial bong you get when starting up.
If I connect a normal monitor, I’m connecting a Compaq flat panel., the computer boots normally with no problems whatsoever.
I don’t have any USB connections to the monitor, though I have a wireless mouse connected to the keyboard USB.
Things I have tried:
Resetting the Pram
resetting the nvram
resetting open firmware
Any ideas would e greatly appreciated. Oh one other thing. When i first started using the studio display everything worked with no problems. This not booting or booting into Open firmware came on suddenly.
