Turns out that backing up to my CD-R is now prohibited from the Firewire Drive. Anyone have any guesses as to why this might be (aside from me needing the 2906 extension?)

where in the boot process does the 120 crash? Just a wild guess here....my Power Computing machine has a reset button on the mother board called a CUDA switch. Try pressing that an…
