I have a powerbook titanium g4 and it used to work perfect untill I erased and installed os x tiger.
Now when I open system preferences and select screen saver and try to adjust the screen saver or wallpaper it freezes and sometimes beeps . I've tried deleting com.apple.preferences, but it doesnt work. hopefully I've havent tried everything.
If anyone has any ideas please let me know.
thanks.

Can you better define what happens? When it freezes, do you mean you get a kernel panic, the mouse freezes, spinning wheel of death, what? As for the beeps, what does that sound like? Have you heard this sound anywhere else before? Not much to go on here...

thanks for the quick reply.
when I click from wallpaper to screen saver I get the spinning wheel and when I try to force quit the application everything freezes. somtimes I here 3 beeps that sound like its coming from motherboard. I hope this explains things better.
thanks again for the help.

Please can someone help me this is so frustrating. When ever I try to open screensaver/wall paper I get the spinning beach ball and the application closes. I've erased and reinstalled tiger again and it still does the same thing.
any ideas please let me know'
thanks
