Running Tiger on 2GHz G5. Have randon boxes that appear on screen. These appear around icons, folders, within applications for noe apparent reason. Don't know if this is a software or hardware problem? Whole system has been flattening and re-installed before but not looking to do this to solve it yet.

Need help!!!

Do you have your volume muted? If so, you probably activated VoiceOver. You can turn it off within System Preferences > Universal Access.

If I remember right from the last thread about this it happens frequently to people that use quark since they shortcuts are very similar.

Yeah, does anyone know an easy way to stop command-F5 from enabling VoiceOver? I'd rather use it with DesktopManager.

You can customize keyboard shortcuts in the Keyboard & Mouse prefpane.
