I have a blue & white G3 with two hard drives. OS 9 on one and X on the other. All of a sudden, while in OS 9, I got the following message when attempting to open the Startup Disk Control Panel.

The application "Startup Disk" could not be opened because ">>OTUtilityLib<<" could not start up.

I get a similar message when opening other apps or control panels. Some work, some dont.

I have loaded the Mac OS 9 base extensions and the Mac OS 9 all and neither helps.

Anybody have a fix for this? I've tried all the usual, zap pram, etc.

I tried that, for some reason it wouldn't work.
I ended up having to reinstall the complete system software. A pain, but I've got my system back up.

Thanks for the advice,
Kevin
