Mac Forum / Applications / Other MS Products / October 2004Black screen of death
I recently run Software Update on my G4/700Mhz iMac. After doing the security update, it restarts to a black empty screen asking me for my login and password. Now what is that??!!! I tried putting the desired login but to no avail... Please help! I'm on OSX 10.2.8 If you have forgotten your password, you can (or at least could with the previous version of X.1) insert the system CD, and from one of the menus at the top you can select "change password" hope this helps, MIKE T > I recently run Software Update on my G4/700Mhz iMac.

(S. J.) Try reinstalling Mac OS X because this might be a fatal problem. Command prompts are sometimes fatal problems unless you want to see a command prompt.
